KLO To-Do List
Not necessarily in order of priority, here are some of the things slated for future updates/versions of the software:
Proper Mac OS X runtimes for download [Done, .dmg posted—verify?]Improvements to circle-packing, both in terms of generating the triangulation (e.g., for loose ends, 1-cuts, etc.) and in terms of efficiency of the computations. [First set of improvements made in version 0.4 alpha]Fully-enabled Sketch and Edit modes (allowing changing of crossings, coefficients, etc. after the initial drawing phase), and the ability to [Cancel] a handle-slide or slice blowup (as of now, the user must simply finish the move and then step backward to the original diagram). [Done, as of version 0.3 alpha]- Export to
SnapPea (easy, already available in the old version) and possibly EPS or PDF for print-quality diagrams. [PDF export as of version 0.55 alpha]
- Computation of invariants (
linking form/signature, Seifert signature, etc.).
- Implementation of other KLO's:
knots (including oriented and/or colored), 2-knot diagrams, etc. [knots introduced in version 0.55 alpha]
- Other little things (and larger ones) to come as I think of or find them, or on suggestion from users!
