PyXCOM 0.9.3 Description

PyXCOM 0.9.3 is created to be a helpful and full-featured pythonic GUI (Graphical User Inetrface) and TUI (Text User Interface) which is dedicated to the NIST (National Institute for Standards and Technologies) program XCOM. pyxcom allows to calculate seemlessly the X-ray cross sections and attenuation factors of many materials. Several times it happened to him to use XCOM data in scripts. Unfortunately XCOM is an interactive program, so he had to found workarounds to comfortably access its results in scripts. After some coding he found he had a small Python library that, once reorganized, resulted in a TUI for XCOM. Then he started adding features to this program, in particular he added an experimental wxPython interface and he released it to the pubblic domain under the name of pyxcom, hoping that some other people could take advantage of his work as he did with the one made by the Open Source community.Enhancements: Pyxcom is a textual and graphical front end to the NIST software XCOM.With Pyxcom you can easily obtain cross section of X-rays and gamma-rays.A wxPython interface is provided.Requirements:GTK+ version 2.8.xXCOM
