Lynkeos is a Cocoa application dedicated to the processing of astronomical digital images taken through a telescope. It is a “Universal binary” running natively on PowerPC and Intel Macintoshes. It is optimized for vectorized instructions sets (Altivec or SSE), multi-processor and multi-core machines.
Read the introduction it is a good starting point to know what Lynkeos does, why and how.
