Great work, look forward to seeing more.

Now off to check out the book site.
You don't need to align the lines with the ST7 (although this does make it easier)
You just open the image in Iris, select a region of the spectrum and issue the command "L_ori"
It then tells you the angle that the image needs to be rotated. You then use the "ROT" command with this angle in it and the spectrum is nicely horizontal.
