This method by Fry (Tectonophysics, 1978) can be taken as a statistical variant of the centre-to-centre technique introduced by J G Ramsay (Folding and fracturing of rocks, McGraw,1967). While Ramsay's method is ideally suited for . deformed aggregates with shared boundaries (e.g. a colony of deformed corals), Fry's method (if the distribution of aggregates is not Poissonian) can be used for aggregates of deformed aggregates of any kind such as deformed quartz grains or pebbles. The program developed very useful and versatile in the sense that complete annotation of the plot and caption and legend and printing facility is available in the very program and you do not, unlike other programs,  have to export the plot to other programs with graphic facilities. A is a splash of the program and B the result of deformed pisolites from Germany. The download of the zipped file would begin on clicking B.
