Software Download

The following file is a UNIX shell script that provides a convenient interface to CaSnooper and CASW with an associated MEDM and StripTool, as described above in "Channel Access, CaSnooper, and CASW". You will probably have to customize it for your site. Most of the modifications should be in changing the application paths at the top of the script to those for your installation.
