Bruker provides procedures for importing and exporting data in Bruker
file formats from within Precision Visual's Wave software (version 3.0).

SAXII_READ_FRAME.PRO	PV-wave procedure to read a Bruker frame file.
SAXII_READ_PLOTSO.PRO	PV-wave procedure to read a Bruker PlotSO file.
SAXII_SAVE_FRAME.PRO	PV-wave procedure to save a Bruker frame file.
SAXII_SAVE_PLOTSO.PRO	PV-wave procedure to save a Bruker PlotSO file.


SAXII_READ_FRAME
----------------
 PV-Wave procedure to read a Bruker area detector frame. Header is type to
 screen and the image is displayed, and the color table is stretch to fit.
 This version handles 8-, 16-, or 32-bit frames WITHOUT an overflow table.

 PV-Wave's image color table works only on byte images. Values above 256 are
 clipped upon being displayed. Thus the user may wish to use the HIST_EQUAL
 function to rescale 16- or 31-bit frames into byte images:

   image = hist_equal (image)
   tv, image

 Usage:
   .run saxii_read_frame
   saxii_read_frame, image [, filename, header]

   image (dimension (512,512)) returns the byte/word/dword image data
   filename  Frame data filename. If missing the procedure will ask for it.
   header (dimension (*,80)) returns the header information


SAXII_READ_PLOTSO
-----------------
 PV-wave procedure to read a Bruker PLOTSO file.

 Usage:
   .run saxii_read_plotso
   saxii_read_plotso, xarray, yarray [, filename]

   xarray (dimension (500,10)) returns the 2theta values of up to ten ranges.
   yarray (dimension (500,10)) returns the intensity counts of up to ten ranges.
   filename  PLOTSO filename. If missing the procedure will ask for it.


SAXII_SAVE_FRAME
----------------
 PV-Wave function to save a Bruker area detector frame. Header is modified
 from the original frame header. This version handles 8-, 16-, or 32-bit frames
 WITHOUT an overflow table.

 Usage:
   .run saxii_save_frame
   saxii_save_frame, image [, filename, header]

   image (dimension (512,512)) byte/word/dword image data
   filename  Frame data filename. If missing the procedure will ask for it.
   header (dimension (*,80)) header information


SAXII_SAVE_PLOTSO
-----------------
 PV-wave procedure to save an array as a Bruker PLOTSO file.

 Usage:
   .run saxii_save_plotso
   saxii_save_plotso, xarray, yarray [, filename]

   xarray (dimension (500,10)) 2theta values of up to ten ranges.
   yarray (dimension (500,10)) intensity counts of up to ten ranges.
   filename  PLOTSO filename. If missing the procedure will ask for it.
