Step Linking
Back to 2014.
This python script reads in the lists of particles for each image generated by the python image processing step and outputs a list of steps in "steps.txt" and also images of the particle associations, in pixel units, in each step between figures in "match*.png".
Version 1.1 (Some improvements and bug fixes pertaining to particular cases of user input.)
