Hi everyone,
Is anyone working on these ports? If not I am going to start working
on the required files for the ports. Just to get familiar with the
system.
I have xrayutilities working, but it requires math/h5py which is
being worked on by Brian Callahan. This is a module for doing X-ray
fitting and modeling in python for crystallography in physics and
chemistry.
I have had xonsh devs change the default aliases to work with openbsd.
This also installs just fine so should be an easy port. Xonsh is a
unix-like shell designed in python, which is a neat. Handy for
scripting when your doing a lot of python work but still having the
convenience of shell like tools and piping.
I am having some issues with fityk and xylib with detecting boost and
finding some files but I'll post this as a separate issue as I get farther
along. A useful tool for doing peak fitting in X-Raydiffraction and
X-Ray Photoelectron spectroscopy.
For some of these ports such as xrayutilities this seems to fit better
in its own category, such as {sci,science,research}/xrayutilities, as
I have a few more things to port over that is science related but
doesn't have a good spot, as it blends with both chemistry and physics
(I am a physicist). Is it feasible to do something like this? or
is this breaking the rules? I noticed categories such as astro,bio and
geo so it seems to be possible.
Sorry for the long e-mail, and thanks!
Dave
