+WEASEL: Walter & Eliza Analysis Software: Eclectic & Lucid*
+
+WEASEL is a general purpose flow cytometry data analysis and display
+program developed at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical
+Research (WEHI). Many different display formats are possible as are
+the extraction of a number of numerical or statistical measures.
+Multiple flow cytometry standard (FCS) data files can be compared
+side-by-side on screen and there is facility for fast scanning through
+collections of data files. Display layouts may be saved as may high
+quality graphics which may be incorporated into other documents. One
+of the program's design parameters was to make operation as simple and
+intuitive as possible so self instruction should be the best course.
+
+Features:
+- Common display forms (histograms, contour plots and dot plots).
+- More exotic forms (3D dot plots, population linked displays, pseudo-
+ imaging and biplots).
+- Batch mode processing.
+- Merging and exporting FCS data files.
+- Export of high resolution graphics.
+- Numerical statistics.
+- Handles multi-block data.
+
+IMPORTANT!
+This program is NOT free! A fully functional copy can be downloaded
+free for a 30 day trial. Thereafter, a small license fee is required.
+Licensing information and application form can be found in the doc
+foldert of the package and on the program's website.
+
+DOWNLOAD NOTE:
+You should register at the web-site in order to download WEASEL. This
+means you have to use a web browser. Following the download, you will
+be sent an email message containing your free trial license code.
