Description

I get the following error message from gcur:

--> print iraf.cl.gcur() Traceback (innermost last):

File "<console>", line 1, in ?

TypeError?: 'str' object is not callable

This occurs at the end, when I hit return (or some other character) to return control to the command line. I'm using python 2.3.3 on a Sun

Maybe we should add this to the FAQ -- it's an easy mistake to make and not so easy to understand. (I didn't immediately see myself that the parentheses were the problem.)[Rick White]

  • owner changed from somebody to sontag.

This has been added to the FAQ entry concerning iraf.cl.gcur.

Also, the FAQ has been moved from the old stsdas.stsci.edu site onto the Zope site:

http://www.stsci.edu/resources/software_hardware/pyraf/pyraf_faq

It was reformatted slightly for appearance, and some minor corrections were made, including adding a mention of 'tpar' in the question about running 'epar' remotely. As of 27 Feb 2008, the above URL holds the most current version of the PyRAF FAQ.
