Dear BUM'ers - finally I have pulled myself together and produced a manual
and a PC executable for this program. It does a 'global least-squares
analysis, based on prior knowledge'. Its main application is processing of
FT-PGSE data, but it can be used for kinetic studies and various spin
relaxation experiments. It is described on my homepage.

An Intel PC version is downloadable from my homepage as of yesterday. I
will add an Alpha NT version very shortly. If you need (the best) OpenVMS
Alpha version,I can supply you with a copy upon request. If you use the
Intel PC, you need like 50 MB workspace for full storage of intermediate
graphic files, and a reasonably good PC. The Pentium II with 64+ MB memory
is just fine. A 433 MHz NT or OpenVMS Alpha is twice as fast as a 400 MHz
Pentium II in this application.

The distribution includes support for Bruker AMX/DMX files, and for
'formatted user-written' input.

To make full use of CORE, you also need Matlab (for plotting). The
'waterfall' feature in Matlab 5.x for PC used to have a bug, that
'randomized' stacked plots, but it seems to have 'fixed itself' on my own
W98 PC, through various
(Microsoft) upgrades. So perhaps it was not a bug in Matlab, but rather in
graphics handling under W98. Note, however that you need the Matlab 5.2.1
patch for Matlab to run properly on a W98 machine.

Peter

PS. No - there is no option for a DOSY display of CORE-processed FT-PGSE
data as yet.
