Lynkeos is a Cocoa application dedicated to the processing of planet images taken with a webcam through a telescope.
Lynkeos was one of the argonauts, the Jason's fellows who sailed on the Argo ship,
	seeking for the golden fleece.
	Lynkeos was surnaturally keen sighted, hence the name of this software, hoping that this
	sponsorship will help it giving surnatural results 
It is to be noticed that the Argo ship sails the skies as the Carina, Puppis and Vela constellations ; among the argonauts were Castor and Pollux : the "Gemini" and Hercules. At last, Lynkeos himself roams the skies as the Lynx constellation.
By stacking the best images, the signal to noise ratio is increased and details lost in the noise of individual images become visible in the resulting image.
This software accepts QuickTime® sequences or still images, in any 
      image format supported by Cocoa, as input
      It generates a 16 bits RGB TIFF image as output, to be further processed 
      with some all-purpose image processing application.
    
The steps to process a collection of images are :
