[R-sig-Geo] Anisotropic point processes are inhomogeneous?

At least the typical definition of an inhomogeneous K-function uses a
disc as the structure element and can't capture anisotropy as far as I
can see. It only depends on distance between points and not the vector
difference.
Btw. if you do not assume stationarity of your process I would think
that the results from something like Ksector can be misleading. In
general it seems like a difficult problem to separate inhomogeneity and
anisotropy from each other, but it might be that I just don't know the
right tools.
Sorry for not being more helpful.
Cheers,
Ege
