Modified applications

• CLEANER writes the bad-pixel flag.

• CONTOUR, DISPLAY, GREYPLOT, TURBOCONT each has a new FILL parameter that permits the maximum-sized plots, ignoring any restriction on square pixels. It is useful for displaying images with markedly different dimensions, such as spectra. FILL defaults to FALSE.

• CONTOUR and TURBOCONT each has a new BORDER parameter that defaults to TRUE. When it and Parameter AXES are both FALSE, no border is drawn around the contour plot.

• DISPLAY and GREYPLOT pass the linear scaling limits to global parameters that LUTVIEW now uses by default. (Note that this is a temporary arrangement, since a means to pass non-linear scalings is planned.)

• GAUSS permits arbitrarily oriented elliptical Gaussian smoothing kernels, though the default still produces a circularly symmetric filter.

• INSPECT uses the existing palette  for its annotations in cursor mode.

• MLINPLOT has a KEY parameter so that the key may be removed. It is defaulted to TRUE, giving the previous behaviour.

• PALENTRY works for X-window overlays, so that it is now possible to alter the foreground colour of the overlay.

• PICLIST indicates the current picture.

• SNAPSHOT Parameter ODEVICE suggested default is the current value of the parameter. There is a new defaulted Parameter PLANES that enables snapshots of just the base or the overlay for X-windows. The default behaviour is to capture all planes, as happened prior to this version.

• SURFIT has more constraints to prevent problems with small arrays. It obtains the value of ESTIMATOR after the number of values in a bin is known, its default becomes the median when the bins comprise fewer than 12 pixels.
