Mission
Our goal is to provide a
free
package to construct, view and analyse atomic structures, as powerful
and simple to use as possible.
GAMGI aims to be useful for: 1) the scientific community working
in atomistic modelling, who needs a graphic interface to build
and analyse atomic structures; 2) the scientific community at large,
who needs a graphic interface to study atomic structures and to prepare
images for presentations; 3) teaching the atomic structure of matter
in schools and universities, even inviting students to run GAMGI at home;
4) science promotion, in exhibitions and science museums.
Requirements
GAMGI can be installed on any computer running Linux/Unix
with the standard X Window System. GAMGI requires the following
libraries:
Gtk,
Mesa,
Gtkglext,
Expat
and
Freetype.
To run properly, GAMGI requires a graphics environment
with at least 16 bits per pixel, plus a 3-button mouse.
