+SAOImage DS9 is an astronomical imaging and data visualization
+application. DS9 supports FITS images and binary tables, multiple
+frame buffers, region manipulation, and many scale algorithms and
+colormaps. It provides for easy communication with external analysis
+tasks and is highly configurable and extensible. DS9 supports advanced
+features such as multiple frame buffers, mosaic images, tiling,
+blinking, geometric markers, colormap manipulation, scaling, arbitrary
+zoom, rotation, pan, and a variety of coordinate systems. DS9 also
+supports FTP and HTTP access.
+ 
+The GUI for DS9 is user configurable. GUI elements such as the
+coordinate display, panner, magnifier, horizontal and vertical
+graphs, button bar, and colorbar can be configured via menus or the
+command line.
+ 
+DS9 is a Tk/Tcl application which utilizes the SAOTk widget set. It
+also incorporates the  X Public Access (XPA) mechanism to allow
+external processes to access and control its data, GUI functions, and
+algorithms.
