*:* You just have to provide it with a resultdirectory and the directory where your frames are stored.
*:* All datasets consisting of more than 100 frames within the given directory and all its subdirectories will be processed.
*:* For each dataset a space group assignment is done using POINTLESS of the CCP4 software package
*:* Plots of the most informative statistics of INTEGRATE.LP, CORRECT.LP and XDSSTAT.LP are generated for each dataset
*:* A plot comparing Rmeas, I/sig and Completeness of all the processed datasets is generated
*:* You can also generate plots for datasets that have been processed using XDS without XDSi
 
* XDSi is still alpha, but
*:* it should work reasonably well for PILATUS datasets
*:* it may work for MAR-CCD datasets if the frames are bzip2ed
 
* To be able to use XDSi you must have installed

*:* xdsstat
*:* xdsviewer
*:* pointless
*:* gnuplot >= Version 4.0
*:* convert (part of ImageMagick)
*:* kpdf
 
* To install XDSi
*:* Download xdsi.tar.gz at [ftp://turn14.biologie.uni-konstanz.de/pub/xdsi/ XDSi]
*:* tar -zxf xdsi.tar.gz; you get the files xdsi, xdsi_doc.pdf and the folder templates
*:* open the file xdsi with a texteditor and change
*:*:* set Templates “/mydir/templates” to the correct path
*:*:* set initial “/mydir/SLS-2009” to the path where your synchrotron data are stored
*:* put the file xdsi somewhere in your $PATH (e.g.: /usr/local/bin), chmod 755 xdsi and source ~/.cshrc
*:* You should now be able to start XDSi via the command xdsi
 
 
If it works well, enjoy!
