DS9 5.6 - now SAMP compatible

[Mark Taylor]

For those who didn't see the announcement on fitsbits, Bill Joye has
just released version 5.6 of the popular image viewer SAOImage DS9.
I'm reporting it here because from this version, DS9 can exchange 
image- and table-related messages with other applications using SAMP.
It is a welcome addition to the community of SAMP applications.
