Why is it called astk?

It is unclear to me what this software can do. Can I generate finite element models with it? Or is it just a way to start simulations on a backend? Can I view models, or meshes, or results of calculations? What kind of finite elements are supported? If this is a frontend, is the backend also packaged for Debian?

I think it doesn't matter what language these tools are written in, as long as they do whay they're supposed to do. So this is not useful information for the long description. Use the debtags system instead for these kinds of annotations. -- Met vriendelijke groet / with kind regards, Guus Sliepen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
