Multiple crashes when using star mask creation or morphology

[cdavid]

Hi I've had some recent issues with PNS. It seems when I am done using the program and quit.....it crashes during the quitting. I am also experiencing crashes when creating star masks or using morphology. I am running the most recent 64bit version of PNS on a new iMac. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you
Carlos

So the updates have fixed the majority of the problems, but my pixinsight crashes each time I quit the program.  It will ask me if I want to end the session, i click yes, it quits and I get a message from apple stating that it crashed.  Any ideas?
Thanks

try disabling the parallel processing capabilities:
 on the console, type: parallel -disable

Has something changed in the new 1.7 version....the command parallel -enable is not recognized?

Thanks

Hi Carlos,

We changed some command parameters syntax to make them more coherent. It is now 'parallel --enable' or 'parallel -e'.

To get help on a command type either 'help <command>' or '<command> --help'.

Regarding crashes on application exit, this problem is being reported by some users on Mac OS X Lion. It doesn't happen on the rest of platforms. I am still trying to figure out the cause of this. I hope to have a Mac machine with OS X 10.7 installed during this week to make some tests.

happens on snow leopard (10.6) also... x86-64 especially.
