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.
