The Visualization Toolkit (VTK) is an open source, freely available software system for 3D computer graphics, modeling, image processing, volume rendering, scientific visualization and information visualization. VTK also includes ancillary support for 3D interaction widgets, two and three-dimensional annotation, and parallel computing. At its core VTK is implemented as a C++ toolkit, requiring users to build applications by combining various objects into an application. The system also supports automated wrapping of the C++ core into Python, Java and Tcl, so that VTK applications may also be written using these interpreted programming languages. You can enable a lot of optional features by passing variables to the script (VAR=yes/no ./VTK.SlackBuild): IMAGING=yes|no (default: no) MPI=yes|no (default: no), requires openmpi TCL=yes|no (default: yes) TK=yes|no (default: yes) VIEWS=yes|no (default: no) WEB=yes|no (default: no), requires python-twisted JAVA=yes|no (default: no), requires jdk PYTHON=yes|no (default: yes) QT=yes|no (default: yes)
