[Ifeffit] Using FEFF8 with Artemis

Hi,

I think the "line endings from other operating systems" should be
something that is handled automatically  in the programs.    That is,
one should be able to run Feff8 on a unix system and use the results
on a Windows or Mac machine without having to "clean" the files.

Ifeffit is already insensitive to data files and script files from
foreign systems, but for some reason I cannot justify, Ifeffit still
fails to read feff.dat files from other foreign systems.    I now have
a fix for this (that works for me in one test case, and so needs some
more testing!), so I'll release a 1.2.10 version with this fix soon
(as soon as I have time to build and test a Windows dll).

I'm sure it's easy for Artemis to automatically check and fix line
ending problems for files.dat, etc.

Sorry for the trouble,

--Matt
