XDSGUI : a graphical user interface for XDS , SHELX and ARCIMBOLDO .

XDSGUI is a lightweight graphical user interface (GUI) for the XDS , SHELX and ARCIMBOLDO program packages that serves both novice and experienced users in obtaining optimal processing and phasing results for X-ray, neutron and electron diffraction data. The design of the program enables data processing and phasing without command line usage, and supports advanced command flows in a simple user-modifiable and user-extensible way. The GUI supplies graphical information based on the tabular log output of the programs, which is more intuitive, comprehensible and efficient than text output can be.
