PDL::Graphics::IIS provides an interface to any image display 'device' which support the 'IIS protocol' - viz the SAOimage and Ximtool X-windows programs, the old SunView imtool program and presumably even the original IIS CRT itself if they aren't all in museums! These programs should be familiar to astronomers - they are used by the common IRAF system. Non-astronomers may find they quite nifty for displaying 2D data.
