EMAN2 is not (yet) a replacement for EMAN1, but can enhance EMAN1's capabilities. It was designed so both EMAN1 and EMAN2 can be installed in the same user account with no conflicts. All EMAN2 programs, including GUI programs are written in the easy-to-learn Python scripting language. This permits knowledgable end-users to customize any of the code with unprecendented ease. If you aren't an advanced user, you can still make use of all of EMAN2's command-line programs, all of which start with 'e2'. Any programs in EMAN2 with an EMAN1 equivalent are likely substantially improved over their EMAN1 equivalents. For example e2pdb2mrc.py is ~10x faster than the EMAN1 pdb2mrc. EMAN2 is now almost a complete replacement for EMAN1. However, it was designed so both EMAN1 and EMAN2 can be installed in the same user account with no conflicts, in case you need some EMAN1 functionality.

EMAN2 alpha

Note that EMAN2 is still in alpha-testing. It can do some useful things, but is not completely stable yet.

About EMAN2

EMAN2 is now almost a complete replacement for EMAN1. However, it was designed so both EMAN1 and EMAN2 can be installed in the same user account with no conflicts, in case you need some EMAN1 functionality. All EMAN2 programs, including GUI programs are written in the easy-to-learn Python scripting language. This permits knowledgable end-users to customize any of the code with unprecendented ease. If you aren't an advanced user, you can still make use of all of EMAN2's command-line programs, all of which start with 'e2'. Any programs in EMAN2 with an EMAN1 equivalent are likely substantially improved over their EMAN1 equivalents. For example e2pdb2mrc.py is ~10x faster than the EMAN1 pdb2mrc.
