The computer program CRYC3D works with three‐dimensional crystallographic geometric objects or groups of them and calculates their basic geometric characteristics by a simple click in the menu. In particular, this includes vector operations in both direct and reciprocal spaces and cell transformations. Collecting basic crystallographic operations in a single and simple program helps crystallographers to avoid looking for `fast‐and‐dirty' scripts or using large and unwieldy packages and may be useful in everyday work. When running the program in its principal mode, macro‐operations are accompanied by a list of elementary geometric operations. This feature, together with the presence of a single‐command mode and online help, may be useful also as a teaching tool.
