Ich weiss, es ist nicht mehr in, Programme, insbesondere wenn sie
mehr als 20Mb gross sind, noch in Deutschland zu lagern, der
egozentrische ftp'er kopiert das Zeugs lieber 3 mal aus den USA
(einmal fuer sich, und 2 fuer seine Freunde), aber ich kann mich
halt nicht von meinen Gewohnheiten trennen. Vielleicht gibt es
ja tatsaechlich noch jemanden, der bisher Khoros-1.0 noch nicht
direkt aus den USA kopiert hat, und den ich hiermit davon abhalten kann.

                         KHOROS 1.0

INTRODUCTION
------------

     Khoros is an integrated software development environ-
ment for information processing and visualization, based on
X11R4.  Khoros components include a visual programming
language, code generators for extending the visual language
and adding new application packages to the system, an
interactive user interface editor, an interactive image
display package, an extensive library of image processing,
numerical analysis and signal processing routines, and 2D/3D
plotting packages.

X Windows Applications
- ------- ------------

Animate - Interactive Image Sequence Display Tool
Cantata - Extensible Visual Programming Language
Concert - A system for distributed X user interfaces (group
ware)
Editimage - Interactive Image Display & Manipulation Program
Xprism2 and Xprism3 - Comprehensive 2D and 3D Plotting Pack-
ages
Viewimage - A basic interactive program for surface render-
ing
Warpimage - An interactive program for registering and warp-
ing images

Data Processing Algorithms
---- ---------- ----------

Khoros contains over 260 programs, in the following
categories: arithmetic, classification, color conversion,
data conversion, file format conversion, feature extraction,
frequency filtering, matrix algebra (LINPACK and EISPACK),
spatial filtering, morphology filtering, geometric manipula-
tion, histogram manipulation, statistics, signal generation,
linear operations, segmentation, spectral estimation, sub-
region, and transforms. Khoros supports the following file
formats: TIFF, pbm, BIG, DEM, DLG, ELAS, FITS, MAT*AB, Sun
raster, TGA, and xbm.

User Interface Tools
---- --------- -----

Preview - Graphical User Interface Display Tool
Composer - Interactive Graphical User Interface Editor
Conductor - Code Generation Tool for a Graphical User Inter-
face
Ghostwriter - Code Generation Tool for a Command Line User
Interface
Source Configuration & Management - Tools to install and
maintain a distributed source tree.



KHOROS REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS
------ ------------ --- -----------

     To run Khoros, you must have a UNIX platform running
the X11R3, X11R4, or OpenWindows servers. The Khoros system
consists of ~450,000 lines of C code;  you will need a max-
imum of 120 Megabytes of storage for source, documentation
and binaries.  To compile Khoros, the system requires X11R4
client software from MIT (patch levels 1-18), and an addi-
tional 50 Megabytes of storage.
