macOS automator workflow files for quickly launching astronomy softwares from your selection.
note: for ds9/fv, you should have HEASOFT installed and init commands in your bashrc/zshrc file to make sure PATHs are set correct when a terminal is called. steps:
- double-click on the downloaded automator workflow and 'install quick action'.
- launch automator app to edit the workflow files. change $YourTerm and $HEADAS in the script to your local paths.
- select your FITS file, right-click and select 'quick actions', click 'Call terminal(File)/ds9/fv/...'
We highly suggest adding a keyboard shortcut to this quick action in settings(i.e. cmd+shift+9 for ds9) for better experience. Simply go 'Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Services > Files and Folders > Call terminal/ds9/fv/...'
