* Package Name:         stilts
* Version:              v3.0-7
* Upstream Author:      Mark Taylor <m.b.taylor@bristol.ac.uk>
* URL:                  http://www.star.bris.ac.uk/~mbt/stilts/
* Programming Language: Java

* Description:          Astronomical Starlink Tables Infrastructure Library Tool Set

Stilts (Starlink Tables Infrastructure Library Tool Set) is a
command-line and scriptable interface for handling tables within the
astronomical observatory.  Stilts can handle and convert between a
number of astronomical table formats, including FITS, ColFITS,
VOTable, NASA CDF, ASCII, CSV/TSV/TST, Gaia DPAC GBIN (additional
dependencies required), IPAC, and WDC; viz:

  http://www.star.bristol.ac.uk/~mbt/topcat/sun253/inFormats.html

For packaging, we will need to add a '/usr/bin/stilts' wrapper:

  http://www.star.bris.ac.uk/~mbt/stilts/sun256/sun256.html#stilts-cmd
  http://www.star.bris.ac.uk/~mbt/stilts/sun256/sun256.html#invoke

Which will probably contain something like:

  exec java -classpath topcat-lite.jar uk.ac.starlink.ttools.Stilts

It is built upon the Starlink Tables Infrastructure Library Tool Set
(STIL) and is the command-line counterpart to the graphical
'Topcat' application.  From the wrapper command we can see the close
relationship to Topcat, although hopefully more modularisation can be
achieved so that only 'default-jre-headless' is required.

In addition to the large dependency list shared with Topcat, a number
of those dependencies in turn come from Starlink which has sub-modules
with several licences.  The various licences are documented by
Upstream in:

  http://www.star.bris.ac.uk/~mbt/stilts/LICENSE.txt

and a fuller-audit will be required about the precise
dependency relationship and corresponding licence compatilibity.

STILTS is now in Debian as part of the starjava-ttools package.
Therefore this one can be closed.
