Introduction
------------

GILDAS is a collection of state-of-the-art softwares oriented toward
(sub-)millimeter radioastronomical applications (either single-dish or
interferometer). It is daily used to reduce all data acquired with the IRAM
30M telescope and Plateau de Bure Interferometer PDBI (except VLBI
observations). GILDAS is easily extensible. GILDAS is written in
Fortran-90, with a few parts in C/C++ (mainly keyboard interaction,
plotting, widgets).

IMAGER is a contributed package to image interferometric data, and visualize
any 3-D data cube.
