IC 417 Box Disk Contents
I have set up a disk in the cloud (through a service called "Box", as in box.com) on which I can distribute data for our visit. See me for the link (I don't want to link it in here directly).
Nearly all of the files I make for you are plain text. If they do not have an extension like .pdf, .doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt, .pptx, then they are most likely plain text. Some of the extensions have real meanings -- like .tbl is an IPAC table file, and .reg is a ds9 regions file. PARTICULARLY IF YOU HAVE A WINDOWS MACHINE, it is quite possible that your computer won't know what to do with those files. TO TRICK IT, just change the extension to be .txt. To be safe, and keep track of the "parentage" of the file, I would add rather than swap the extension, e.g., change "ysos.reg" to be "ysos.reg.txt" so that you can view the file using any text editor, but that you as a human remember that the file is really a regions file to be read and used by ds9. (And then, of course, you will subsequently need to convince ds9 that it really is a regions file!)
