Summary
Karma is a general purpose programmer's toolkit and contains KarmaLib
(the structured library and API) and a large number of modules
(applications) to perform many standard tasks. This
manual describes the many visualisation tools which are distributed
with the Karma library.
This document is written for Karma version 1.7.3 , which is
probably my ``experimental'' version. Most of this manual will still be
relevant to the previously released binary-only (or ``beta'')
version, since binary releases come every few weeks or so. Full
public releases come once or twice a year, so this document may talk
about several new things not available in the last public
release of Karma. The programs available at the moment are:
volume rendering of data cubes
play movies of data cubes
inspecting two cubes at the same time
slice a cube
superimposing images
and
interactive position-velocity slices
interactive ``renzograms''
look for expanding shells
interactive co-ordinate placement
rectangular to polar gridding of images
