"redux" is the current (maybe final) code name for what was previously code named "jims".  It is a very lightweight library for loading an image, doing some basic processing and outputing a result image.

Goals:
5
* simple to use python library
6
* simple to use network daemon that can answer requests for an image and the pipeline of processing to do on it
7
* simple to use command line client that uses either the network daemon or locally imported python library to do processing
8
* complex behind-the-scenes result caching

10
Potential uses include:
11
* a command line program like xv or imagemagick to view myami images and generate publication quality results
12
* preparing image for display in Leginon, including contrast adjustments, binning, power spectrum, etc
13
* any functions in leginon/appion where you need to either bin or calculate power spectrum
14
* preparing image for display on web pages.  web server can contact redux server.  this can replace php-mrc module which no longer compiles with php > 5.2
