Lynkeos is a Cocoa application dedicated to the processing of astronomical digital images taken through a telescope.
It is a Universal binary running natively on PowerPC and Intel Macintoshes. It is optimized for vectorized instructions sets (Altivec or SSE), multi-processor and multi-core machines.
Read the introduction it is a good starting point to know what Lynkeos does, why and how.
Please visit this small gallery of images made with Lynkeos.
HERVé 5 Excellent news that this nifty utility continues development.
It really behaves excellently, and also on non-star images (I used it for instance to noise-dampen the series of fix images that Huygens took on Titan) (Version 1.4)
