The Vol Library
What is it ?
The vol library is a library to handle 3D-voxels files. It implements two
formats : a new format called "vol" and a raw format.
It provides an easy-to-use C++ class that allows you to read, write and edit
these files. It manages predefined and user-defined meta-informations about
the volumes.

- We have fixed the version of the vol files in the Tutorial
October 12th 2003
New file format : raw data does not contain the volume size anymore. The lib can of course still read the old format.
Because of lack of time, this new version hasn't been tested as it should have. Please report any bug here.
The vol library has been successfully compiled on :
- SunOS 5.8 on UltraSparc, gcc 2.9.x, gcc 3.x
- Linux, gcc 2.9.x, gcc 3.x
- Irix with gcc 2.9.x, but it should only work with GNU make
It should compile on other unices too.

If you install the vol library, you should also install the Vol tools which are useful to manipulate and convert vol files.
