GENERAL - PROGRAM CREDITS

1.1 - Program Credits for WinGX

WinGX is an integrated system of publically available (but not necessarily public domain) programs for the analysis and refinement of single crystal X-ray diffraction data. It is primarily focussed on small molecule crystallography and has been developed out of the Glasgow GX package (hence its name). Only a few of these original programs remain in WinGX.

A large number of authors worldwide have made their excellent software available to the scientific community through the Internet. The philosophy behind WinGX is to encapsulate this software in a modern, coherent and user friendly environment.

The following authors are thanked for making their program codes available to the scientific community:

G. M. Sheldrick - SHELXS, SHELXA, SHELXL and CIF_TABLES
A. L. Spek - PLATON, PLUTON and LEPAGE
D. M. Watkin and coworkers - CAMERON
C. Giacovazzo and coworkers - SIR92
P. T. Beurskens and coworkers - DIRDIF system
K. W.Muir and P. R. Mallinson - GX programs GEOM and WTANAL
M. Nardelli - PARST and CALC-OH
K. Trueblood and coworkers - THMA11
