Thank you all, many nice suggestions and I will try them all.
For the first time the beamline 2-2 at SSRL is being used for XAS.
The control software is in LINUX and the output files automatically move to a
Windows computer, in binary and ASCII form, sitting next to it.
We were also able to see the ASCII file in wordpad and then saved it as text file after deleting all the text and only keeping the data columns.
Athena was able to read it then.
I will have to write a program to add "#" before text lines. We will need that dealing with lot of data.
I will certainly check with the beamline scientist, why things are the way they are.
About the offsets, I did notice it was slightly negative, but we had other major problems to deal with, so did not bother.
