Dear All:

I am trying to make FFTs of images of assemblies of
spheres and other shapes to explain diffraction, the 
usual thing. So far I do this through cumbersome 
cludges, and I bet there are better ways, and I 
am looking for free or cheap software to do this.

I load the image into basic mathcad, dump it as a grayscale 
array, SFT it with a F90 kludge (s=slow), and load the 
transform back into MC and convert it into an image. However, what
I also want to do is generate a false color diffraction
pattern where the color is the phase. I believe this
is quite similar to the Fourier duck transforms Kevin Cowtan
made. I also recall a textbook were two crystallographers
were phase exchanged, so there got to be packages
that to what I want. 

The mathcad image processing module is too expensive for my taste.
        
Any suggestions for software - maybe there is some software
out already to simulate diffraction from one, 2, 3 an array of
objects?

Cheers, br
