A program to draw and analyze Kikuchi patterns is introduced, especially for electron back-scattering diffraction (EBSD) analysis that has become popular recently. The functions of the program include geometrical drawing of Kikuchi patterns with contrast from kinematical calculation, indexing of observed patterns, acquisition of camera parameters, etc. except for automated crystal orientation map measurement for polycrystalline materials. The program is available from an Internet website and performed on a Windows machine. The outline of the calculation methods in the program is described briefly.
