Features:

• File formats accepted .ang | .osc | .crc | .txt
• can write .ang for FCC. Others could be added
• fast plotting interaction using virtual mask (only used for plotting)
  • increases speed in intermediate test plots
  • even though some interpolation and reading takes time
  • can be removed just before final plotting
• verified with the OIM software and mTex
• heavily tested for cubic
• separate crystal orientation and plotting of it
• some educational plotting
• examples and lots of docummentation via Doxygen
• introduce Kernel average misorientation
