This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. Primary support for the subproject and the subproject's principal investigator may have been provided by other sources, including other NIH sources. The Total Cost listed for the subproject likely represents the estimated amount of Center infrastructure utilized by the subproject, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. With the growing acceptance of cygwin and other public-domain packages such as python and perl/tk as a versatile and extendable programming environment for the windows operating system, we have undertaken a port of some of our most commonly used simulation and non-linear least-squares (NLLS) fitting routines to the windows OS. We have done so in order to facilitate their dissemination amongst the ESR community, many of whom use the windows OS. This is particularly important for the NLLS fitting routines with graphical display of the spectrum and fit that we use with our 1D spectra. The original package was written for the X-windows system and the unix operating system. In order to facilitate the graphics calls within windows, we have largely completed a rewrite of the graphics intensive parts of the code using perl/tk. The user interface is also being rewritten in python as experience has shown that this interpreted language offers significant advantages for testing and debugging. From the user¿s perspective, the entire package consisting of the source code and makefile will compile and run "out of the box" without additional effort by the researcher, once the public domain cygwin, perl/tk and python packages are installed. In order to facilitate the dissemination of these new software packages, we will place them on the center's ftp site, accessible through our homepage, when the package is stable enough for extensive dissemination. We are also in the process of incorporating suggestions for improvements in the software package based on feedback from users in the ESR community. As time and resources permit, we will port these simulation and fitting packages to the macintosh OS.

这个子项目是许多利用资源的研究子项目之一 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目的主要支持 而子项目的主要调查员可能是由其他来源提供的， 包括其它NIH来源。 列出的子项目总成本可能 代表子项目使用的中心基础设施的估计数量， 而不是由NCRR赠款提供给子项目或子项目工作人员的直接资金。 随着越来越多的人接受cygwin和其他公共领域的软件包，如python和perl/tk作为一个多功能和可扩展的编程环境的windows操作系统，我们已经承担了一个港口的一些我们最常用的模拟和非线性最小二乘（NLLS）拟合例程的windows操作系统。我们这样做是为了促进他们之间的传播ESR社区，其中许多人使用Windows操作系统。这对于具有光谱图形显示的NLLS拟合例程以及我们用于1D光谱的拟合尤为重要。 最初的软件包是为X-Windows系统和Unix操作系统编写的。为了方便windows中的图形调用，我们已经使用perl/tk完成了代码中图形密集部分的重写。用户界面也在用python重写，因为经验表明，这种解释型语言为测试和调试提供了显著的优势。从用户？的角度来看，整个软件包组成的源代码和makefile将编译和运行“开箱即用”，而无需额外的努力，由研究人员，一旦公共领域cygwin，perl/tk和python软件包安装。 为了方便这些新软件包的传播，我们将把它们放在中心的ftp网站上，当软件包稳定到足以广泛传播时，可以通过我们的主页访问。 我们亦正根据电子商贸服务社群用户的意见，采纳有关改善软件的建议。 如果时间和资源允许，我们将把这些模拟和装配包移植到Macintosh操作系统。
