The Dish Graphical User Interface

In DISH, wherever practical, what you see is what you are operating on. So, for example, when you press the ``Apply'' button in the ``Baselines'' graphical user interface (GUI) frame of DISH, a baseline will be fit to whatever is currently plotted in the DISH plotter. Results appear in the results manager and, when appropriate, are immediately displayed on the plotter. Results can be moved between the results manager, the calculator, and the browser through the use of a menu which appears when the user presses the right mouse button in one of these frames. This default behavior can be changed so that selections from the Results Manager will be operated upon. This change is necessary to perform functions on SDIterators (see Bulk Processing).

The current state of DISH (the contents of the results manager, the settings of all of the operations, the contents of the calculator, and any active browsers) can be saved at any time either to the default state file or to a location of the user's choosing. DISH can be restored to a previously saved state. By default, DISH saves its state upon exit from glish and restores itself to that same state when DISH is started in a new Glish session.

The following sections detail the major graphical components of DISH.
