Announcement: SeaDAS 4.9 now available

Dear SeaDAS Users,

SeaDAS 4.9 is now available on our ftp site.  This version provides:

* New msl12 Version 5.4.0: Improved SST processing support.

* Other updated processing binaries, including l2bin, l3bin, and smigen.

* New Aqua and Terra LUT's.

* Improved SST display support.  Ability to display pixels of differing
   quality levels for SST.

* Ability to produce SMI files in Integer-16 format with smigen.  GUI has
   been updated to reflect current standard products list.  Non-standard
   products can be specified by running smigen in command-mode.

* Better support for shared SeaDAS installations. This also resolves some
   system security issues.

* Using seadas_setup, users can now specify a custom directory for binaries
   and IDL procedures to be added to their SeaDAS path.

* SeaDAS will now at least attempt to run on IRIX64 and Solaris 9 systems,
   though we cannot guarantee it will work.

SeaDAS 4.9 can be installed using our simple online installation or can be manually installed.
