Bliss also write software and not only for the ESRF. All our software is in the public domain!

The list is likely incomplete, but see for yourself. Installation at the ESRF beamlines is normally done with the blissinstaller.

PyMca

Graphical interface for multi-channel analyser spectra visualization and analysis.

PyMca can display spectra from a file or directly from SPEC during acquisitions.

A description of its analysis capabilities has been published. Due to the copyright transfer to the publisher, the article can be found here.

More information about the program can be found at the PyMca home page.

Latest versions for all platforms are available for download from sourceforge.

Artemis

Artemis is an imaging application to deal with multiple ESRF Data Format (EDF) files.

This application should be considered obsolete because most of its functionality and many new features are included in the latest PyMca. A PyMca roi imaging tutorial is available.

If you are still interested on Artemis, an easy to install windows version can be downloaded here.

Newplot

Newplot is an interface to display data from SPEC files. Newplot allows to find peaks in a scan. Fast, simple fitting routines are available. Newplot has been developed using Python and Tkinter. Most of its functionalities are included in PyMca.

Easy to install  linux and windows binaries are available.

Python SpecClient module

The SpecClient module allows to profit of the server functionalities of spec from a python client either synchronously or asynchronously.

SpecClient is available for direct download.
