The XPA package for Julia
The XPA Messaging System provides seamless communication between many kinds of Unix/Windows programs, including X programs, Tcl/Tk programs. It is used to control some popular astronomical tools such as SAOImage-DS9.
The XPA.jl package is a Julia interface to the XPA Messaging System. XPA.jl can be used to send data or commands to XPA servers, to query data from XPA servers, or to implement an XPA server. The package uses ccall to directly call the routines of the compiled XPA library.
SAOImageDS9.jl is a Julia package that exploits XPA.jl to communicate with SAOImage-DS9.
