- | Here is the list of software we use. | ||
We rely heavily on software written for the [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/fable/|fable project]]. Fable is a collection of packages for multigrain crystallography. Some are still maintained, others have not been touched for 10 years. Recently, a new website was started: [[https://github.com/FABLE-3DXRD|FABLE-3DXRD]]. The idea is to recreate a group of active researcher with software packages that are actually maintained. | We rely heavily on software written for the [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/fable/|fable project]].

There is competition: [[https://github.com/joelvbernier|HEXRD]], written and maintained by J. Bernier in the United States. Joel is actively working on HEXRD so one should keep an eye on it. | There is competition: [[https://github.com/joelvbernier|HEXRD]], written and maintained by J. Bernier in the United States.

+ | ===== Packages we use ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | If something is available on [[https://github.com/FABLE-3DXRD|FABLE-3DXRD]], you should get it from there. Otherwise, you can download it from [[https://sourceforge.net/projects/fable/|fable project]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Here is a list of packages we use. When you click on the links below, you will get additional information on downloading and installing the software. | ||
+ | * [[software:fabian|Fabian]] : to look at diffraction images | ||
+ | * [[software:imagemath|Imagemath]]: calculation of median / average / background images | ||
+ | * [[software:peaksearch|Peaksearch]]: look for peaks (part of ImageD11) | ||
+ | * [[software:imaged11|ImageD11]]: experimental parameters refinement, peak assignment, can do grain indexing | ||
+ | * [[software:grainspotter|GrainSpotter]]: grain indexing | ||
+ | * [[software:fitallb|FitAllB]]: second stage refinement | ||
+ | * [[software:polyxsim|PolyXSim]]: simulation of diffraction data | ||
+ | * [[software:xfab|xfab]]: a python library with crystallographic computations | ||
+ | * Fable: huge graphical interface, that supposedly includes everything. Sometimes it works, most of the time, it does not (anymore) | ||
+ | * [[software:TIMEleSSTools|Specific TIMEleSS tools]]: a collection of scripts from the TIMEleSS projects, for both pre- and post-processing | ||
+ | |||
+ | Details on each piece of software and when to use them can be seen in the [[processing:start|Multigrain data processing workflow]] page. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Minimal installation ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Getting started with a fable-3RDX software set can be hard. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Here is a dedicated page on | ||
+ | * [[software:gettingStartedMax | Getting started on mac]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Other unrelated but useful packages ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | * [[software:mtex|MTeX]]: texture analysis, plot of grain orientations | ||
+ | * [[software:maud|MAUD]]: powder diffraction analysis | ||
+ | * [[software:dioptas|Dioptas]]: python-based program for on-the-fly data processing and exploration of two-dimensional X-ray diffraction area detector data. | ||
+ | * [[software:fit2d|Fit2D]]: general purpose and specialist 1 and 2 dimensional data analysis program, used on most of the European Synchrotron Research Facility beam-lines and by many other crystallography groups throughout the world. | ||
