| EBPG Fun Pak | EBPG, Linux |
All sorts of EBPG goodies, including set_current, gpfsort, gpfmerge, calc.py, align_window, find_edge, find_square, and more. Now contains htstab, for Vectorbeam expatriates. Check out the presentation on drift and sorting for examples of gpfsort in action. Gpfsort and ybrsort can now sort fields by a specified path. NEW gpf utilities adapt to changes in Beams > v09. NEW PROCEDURE for using user-defined marker scripts. |

Installation
To unpack downloaded files that end in “.tar”, use the command
tar xvf filename.tar
To unpack downloaded files that end in “.tar.gz” or “.tgz” use the command
tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
To unpack files that end in “.zip”… If you need help with this then you really should not be attempting e-beam lithography. Go home and take a nap.
Look in the file INSTALL or install.txt for further instructions.
