- There are a LOT of classes in the automatic docs. Basic images are represented by the EMData class
- The EMData methods process, cmp, align, and project are modular methods with many available functions. Use dump_processors(), dump_cmps(), etc.
- There are a few classes like analyzers and reconstructors which are not methods of EMData
- Many utility functions are static members of EMUtil

-Programming Internals:

EMAN2 uses [http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/ Boost.python] to wrap c++ functions to Python.

 [http://www.boost.org/libs/python/pyste/ Pyste] is a Boost.Python code generator to automate this process.

In EMAN2 there is a script create_boost_python in /eman2/libpyEM directory calls Pyste to create c++ wrapping files libpy***.cpp.

Then the c++ compiler will create libraries which contain all the Python function call of EMAN2. Current release of Pyste has a dificit for the default argument handling. So please replace two of your Pyste files in Python site-packages with attached files.
