Remark 2.41 is now available for remote users to download from APO.
Instructions for downloading and installing the new version are at
http://www.apo.nmsu.edu/Telescopes/Remark/remarkfaq.html.  

DIS USERS PLEASE NOTE: older versions of Remark (2.39 and earlier) are
not compatible with the new version of the DIS controller software.
Using an older version of Remark may result in incorrect responses to
your DIS configuration and status commands.

Here is Bob Loewenstein's Remark Version History -

2.41 may 98

  * fixed bug found in DIS motor panel....using settings menu,
wouldn't update things correctly.  Once again, did not need to 'save:
disData' when selecting settings.
  * Decided, just in case this program goes on longer than expected,
to update the sidereal table past 2002.

2.40 feb 98

  * Change instang: keyword handler to accept both integer and float
responses because all the 0 returns are int.
  * added Bias exposure command to DIS (modified inst class for this)
  * added support for medium resolution grating in DIS
  * sync button disables expose and move buttons
  * expose button disables sync and move buttons
  * fixed bug found by mike strauss so that keyboard entries do into
DIS motor thumbwheels
