A set of tools for examining the data produced by the VMEC toroidally confined plasma code. This suite contains a Graphical User (GUI) to aid in the plotting and examination of VMEC data stored in the 'wout' file. Updated to handle version 8.47. Also included is the VMECedit routine which will aid the user in creating VMEC input namelist files.
The VMEC code itself is maintained by Mark Cianciosa at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
