Introduction

NeXpy provides a high-level python interface to NeXus data contained within a simple GUI. It is designed to provide an intuitive interactive toolbox allowing users both to access existing NeXus files and to create new NeXus-conforming data structures without expert knowledge of the file format.

See the NeXpy documentation for more details.

The following libraries are used by the full installation of NeXpy. There is more details of the nature of these dependencies in the NeXpy documentation.

The following environment variable may need to be set PYTHONPATH --> paths to ipython,numpy,scipy,matplotlib if installed in a nonstandard place

All of the above are included in the Enthought Python Distribution v7.3.
