Dr Chris Boothroyd: ic


ic is a fortran program for converting image formats used in electron microscopy. Its main use is for converting Digital Micrograph images into Semper format. Currently (June 2017) it can read Gatan Digital Micrograph (DM2, DM3 and DM4 formats), TIA (Emispec .ser files from FEI microscopes), Semper "write unformatted", Gatan EL/P EELS spectra and Link AN10000 X-ray spectra. It can write Semper disc files (.dsk), Semper read/write unformatted files, Digital Micrograph 2 files and EL/P files.

Usage:

ic *.dm3 -ox.dsk              To convert all dm3 images into x.dsk
ic -h                         For more info

Installation:

Uncompress the .zip file and put ic anywhere on your path. This could be in the same directory as Semper for example.

The libraries will be needed if you do not have gfortran installed. Copy all the library files to /user/local/lib/ (you may need to create this directory if it doesn't already exist)

Downloads are available for:

MacOS X (El Capitan, 10.11 and later) (you will probably also need the libraries)

Older versions:

MacOS X PPC

MacOS X Intel (Tiger, 10.4)

MacOS X Intel (Leopard, 10.5)

MacOS X Intel (Snow Leopard, 10.6) (you might also need /usr/local/lib/libg2c.0.dylib)

Linux (SuSE)

Irix.
