InterpreterCrystallographica includes a unique Pascal intepreter, which has been specially extended for crystallography with the addition of hundreds of built-in library routines. The interpreter is fully integrated with the graphical tools, which react automatically to interpreter commands. This provides a mechanism for creating vivid animations of phase changes, doping etc. The interpreter may be used either by typing commands in a simple "Interactive" window or else by preparing more complicated "Scripts" in the built-in text editor. These scripts are programs which can be integrated into the Crystallographica installation and used along side the built-in library functions.
