[sci.chem] Wanted: Program to make ternary plots of geochemical data.

mudpit@lamont.ldgo.columbia.edu (dan quoidbach) (01/10/90)

I'm looking for a program which can take my geochemical datafiles (either
text or excel files) and create ternary diagrams for output on a laser
printer (with some help from me of course).  It needs to run on a Mac+
with 2.5Meg ram, system 6.0.2 and I would prefer shareware or PD programs.
However, I am interested in all programs that will get the job done.  
Send answers to mudpit@lamont.ldgo.columbia.edu.  I really appreciate the
help.  Thanks.

Igor supports the generation of ternary diagrams on equilateral
triangles.  I only found this out after checking some of the demos.
It is all generated by scripts, and is great for ternary phase
diagrams.  The program is highly recommended.
