we would hereby like to announce the update release of the XDS-GUI XDSAPP V1.0. This version presents a major update of the current XDSAPP software (Krug et al., 2012). XDSAPP is an expert system for the interactive and fully automatic data processing using XDS (Kabsch et al., 2010).
The following new features have been integrated within this software: - New graphical user interface using Python2.6 or higher & Qt4. - Introduction of semi-automatic data processing by re-shaping the workflow in a modular way - Separation of data processing and intensity analysis to avoid repeated recalculations during "step-by-step" processing. - Simple reloading of summary files for already processed data sets. These values can even be used as a starting point for further processing. - The new button "Default parameters" in the "Settings" tab allows the internal deletion of parameters in case a new processing with different parameters is needed. - Fully automatic command line based data processing mode XDSAPP has been tested on the following operating systems: - Scientific Linux 6.3 - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS - openSUSE 13.1 - OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 for Mac The software is free of charge for academic users and can be downloaded here: http://www.helmholtz-berlin.de/bessy-mx References: - Krug M., Weiss M.
