PFT3DR Utilities


The following utilities have been useful for people using PFT2/EM3DR2 and PFT/EM3DR or EMPFT or other related packages:


tofrom_star, two interconversion routines for parameter data (pft_to_star and crd_to_star)

pft_to_star:  Conversion routine for interconverting PFT (or EMPFT) and EM3DR data and the STAR format used in PFT2 and EM3DR2

crd_to_star:  Conversion routine for interconverting .crd data files (particle extraction) from X3DPREPROCESS (by James Conway) and the STAR format used in PFT2 and EM3DR2


Installation from Source Code
1.  Download source code:  tofromstar_20080424.tgz (12 kilobytes)
2.  Put in a new directory, e.g. /usr/local/pft3dr/utilities
3.  Run ./make.tcsh inside the utilities directory to install programs, binary files will be automatically installed in the pft3dr/bin directory*

*Note:  If you choose to place in a directory other than a subdirectory of the pft3dr directory (the directory where you placed the pft3dr code), you will need to edit the make.tcsh file.

Installation from Binaries

          tofromstar_20080424_bin_Linux.tgz
