+Flow cytometry software is a perfect way to analyse complex data sets
+with large sample size. Data can be easily visualized to identify
+correlations and subpopulations. Subpopulations can be selected and
+analysed separately. However, such software requires data in the FCS
+data standard.
+
+This contains two programs: Data2FCS and FCS2Data.
+
+Data2FCS a simple application for converting data in ascii file format
+into FCS3.1 files. A special treat is the possibility to transform
+categorical data into numerical data. The resulting FCS data file can be
+analysed in regular flow cytometry softwares, such as the open source
+FCSaylzer (also available at SlackBuilds.org).
+
+FCS2Data is a simple application for converting FCS data files into
+ascii file format. These files contain the single event data of the FCS
+files, so that the data can be used in other applications.
