In fact, there are some 'enhanced' ATV versions floating
around out there. Henry Roe added support for image cubes when
he was at Berkeley. I've since improved on that a bit, added
better color map handling (so it doesn't stomp on the color map
for the rest of IDL), more keyboard shortcuts, a mouse mode
that measures the distance between two points,
and support for displaying and overplotting polarimetry data.

Then the good folks at the Spitzer Science Center (principally Jim Brauher)
have added a plethora of additional overplotting commands, *including*
a WCS coordinates grid, greatly improved the line-plotting
commands, and a bunch of other little upgrades.

I've talked with Aaron Barth about contributing all my changes back
into the main ATV distribution, but he's been too busy to work on
bug testing all the various contributions. I'm happy to distribute the
modified code, with the important disclaimer that complaints about
bad code should come to me, not Aaron!
