Warning!
This is NOT the place to get STScI's full Python data analysis software package (MultiDrizzle, PyDrizzle, SAAclean, etc., including PyRAF). For that, go to the stsci_python download page instead.
This page is for those that want to download PYRAF ONLY.
PyRAF Only
The current version of PyRAF is v1.11 (July 2011).
This version of PyRAF can also be obtained bundled with the July 2011 version of stsci_python (v2.12).
PyRAF depends on the following support software which can be downloaded from the stsci_python support software web page:
- Python
- Tcl/Tk
- Numpy
- Readline (optional)
- urwid (optional)
- ipython (optional)
- matplotlib (optional)
Note that PyRAF is now available for Microsoft Windows! It will in general be very limited since IRAF is not available on that platform, but some subcomponents such as Astrodrizzle are available for Windows.
PyRAF v1.11 supports Python 2.5, 2.6, and 2.7.
PyRAF does not yet support Python 3.x, though it may by the next release.
The current version of STSDAS is listed here.
