		+	== How to use dx ==
		+	Run <code>dx</code>, and then in the '''Data explorer''' or '''DE'''.
		+	* Click on <code>Edit Visual Programs...</code>.
		+	* Select the <code>map.net</code> program created by relax,
		+
		+	Now in the <code>Visual Program Editor</code> or <code>VPE</code>.
		+	* Select the menu entry <code>Execute->Execute on change</code>.
		+
		+	That's it.
		+
		+	You now have a 3D frame, but nothing in it. Therefore the contour levels must be too low or high. From the map file, the values are in the hundreds of thousands.
		+
		+	Then:
		+	* In the main program window, double click on the <code>Isosurface elements</code>.
		+	* Change the values until you see surfaces. In the first the value is 500. I changed this to 500,000. Multiply all by 1000.
		+	* In the second, 100 -> 100000.
		+	* In the third, 20 -> 20000.
		+	* In the last, 7 -> 7000.
		+
		+	This should maybe be performed by the dx.map user function, determining reasonable contour levels.
		+
		+	With a bit of zooming, clicking on <code>File -> Save image</code> in the <code>Surface</code> window, <code>allowing rendering</code>, and outputting to a large TIFF file, <code>save current</code>, then <code>apply</code>.
