        <p><font color="red">A Data Thief for Scientists.</font> 
        Often the exact numerical values of data points
        depicted in graphs and plots are not available in tabulated form. That's a well known problem for scientists
        and engineers and the only way out is to use a ruler and read the values off the plot. In general this 
        results in poor precision. <em>xyscan</em> is written to overcome this problem. It is a tool that allows 
        one to retrieve the numeric values of data points <em>and</em> error bars with good accuracy. 
        </p><p><em>xyscan</em> can also be used for 
        purposes other than scientific plots, <em>e.g.</em>, for application where coordinates of shapes and curves
        are needed or coordinates and distances on maps.</p>
