HSTaXe
======

HSTaXe is a Python package to provide a uniform process to perform spectral
extraction for the Hubble Space Telescope. HSTaXe supports all slitless
spectroscopy modes provided by the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) and Advanced
Camera for Surveys (ACS).

The core ``hstaxe`` is written in ANSI C and is highly cross-platform by
leveraging ``CFITSIO``, ``GSL``, and ``WCSLIB``, which have been successfully
employed under Linux, Solaris, and MacOS X.

HSTaXe is the successor to aXe, a similar package written on PyRAF/IRAF.
