Examples

One recent nice example of the usage of this package is the visualisation of a time weighted average for a sawtooth curve obtained from several overlays of mkinfit predictions as shown here.

Another, even more recent example shows how FOCUS PELMO can be run in parallel under Linux as shown here.
