ADC Viewer: Catalog display

The requested catalog subset is displayed here. The page is printed as follows:

Toolbar, Catalog and File Titles.
Name of your current table (default: yourTable.dat)
Workspace - action buttons:
These buttons allow the use and manipulation of your workspace. Your workspace is a personal work area created when you first create a table with the Viewer, and is identified by a cookie that expires 5 days after last use of the Viewer. If you do not accept the cookie, you can still use the Viewer, but you won't be able to save multiple tables, nor overplot in Catseye. Whenever you create a table, it is saved in that workspace as yourTable.dat. A new table will overwrite a previous table with that name. To save several tables, you should rename each table using the Rename Table option before creating a new one. The list of your tables is available to operate on, as described below. When you click Plot Tables, all tables are passed to Catseye, which allows overplotting of multiple tables.
- Transfers user to Catseye, a catalog plotting tool.
- Renames present table as your_name.dat (typed into the adjacent text field) in your workspace.
- Selects a table in your workspace to perform a File Action on.
- Selects an action (View, Download, Delete) to perform on your selected table.
  - View: Display selected table.
  - Download: Download table directly to your disk (via content-type: application/octet-stream).
  - Delete: Delete table from your workspace - when you want to clean up your workspace.
- Executes the action on the table.
