NAME

       Lynkeos - an application for processing of astronomical images

SYNOPSIS

       Lynkeos [options] [file]

DESCRIPTION

       Lynkeos  is  a  program  dedicated  to  processing of astronomical (mainly planetary) images taken with a
       webcam through a telescope.  It can import images and movies in various formats.  The images are  stacked
       and processed with different algorithms to improve the quality of the end result.

       Lynkeos is optimized for multi-processor and multi-core machines.

OPTIONS

       No  options  are supported apart from the global GNUstep --GNU-Debug option.  If supplied, file must be a
       Lynkeos Project file (Apple binary property list with .seq extension).

       Lynkeos is fully configurable from its GUI interface.  The only option which is not exposed to  the  user
       is for debugging inter-thread communication.  It can be set with the defaults(1) tool:

       defaults write Lynkeos ThreadConnectionDebug n

       Where  n should be a number representing the debug level: 1 for debug messages related to the queue and 2
       for full debugging (more verbose).

BUGS AND LIMITATIONS

       Because Lynkeos does all of its image processing in secondary threads, it only  works  with  the  default
       cairo  GNUstep  backend.   Certain  functionality is disabled or does not work properly due to incomplete
       GNUstep implementations of the Cocoa API or differences in behavior.
