Popis:	We present XSLIDE (X-Ray Spectral Line IDentifier and Explorer), a graphical user interface that has been designed as a quick-look tool for the upcoming X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM). XSLIDE is a simple and user-friendly application that allows for the interactive plotting of spectra from XRISM's Resolve instrument without requiring the selection of models for forward-fitting. XSLIDE performs common tasks such as rebinning, continuum fitting, automatically detecting lines, assigning detected lines to known atomic transitions, spectral diagnostics, and more. It is expected that XSLIDE will allow XRISM's scientific investigators to rapidly examine many spectra to find those which contain spectral lines of particular interest, and it will also allow astronomers from outside the field of high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy to easily interact with XRISM data.
