Spire

  • a graphical user interface for executing SPIDER batch files and other programs. It also offers a way to manage and organize the many output files created by SPIDER during reconstruction projects.

Spire is designed to simplify running projects that consist of numerous SPIDER batch files. Users who are new to SPIDER can quickly start processing electron micrographs. Spire provides a convenient environment for testing and debugging batch files. However, Spire does not deal with program correctness per se; it simply runs your SPIDER procedure files, and saves a list of output files to a project file.
