JETDSP is a general purpose data display and analysis program that runs in the IDL environment. It supports:

• reading data from the JET machine and related systems (JPF, PPF, CGRT, TRANSP, MDSplus, etc)
• creating standard 2D plots of signal vs time-vector or signal vs x-vector
• creating contour or surface plots from signals that are a function of two independent variables
• annotating with text
• signal processing using IDL
• saving of sets of signals ('Standard Sets') to a file for re-use in later sessions

Current features are covered in the online manual (also linked to from the 'help' menu within the programme).
