Good morning, I have OSX Larch installed and attempting to open XAS data files. It cannot read the file and Larch returns an error: Error trying to read '/Users/DrPatridge/Desktop/2019-03-21/CaVO_50-40-10_vs_Zn.002': _tmp_file_ = read_xdi('/Users/DrPatridge/Desktop/2019-03-21/CaVO_50-40-10_vs_Zn.002') ^^^ File /Users/DrPatridge/.larch/init.lar, line 1 File "/xraylarch/share/larch/plugins/io/xdi.py", line 258, in read_xdi xdif = XDIFile(filename, labels=labels) File "/xraylarch/share/larch/plugins/io/xdi.py", line 124, in __init__ self.read(self.filename) File "/xraylarch/share/larch/plugins/io/xdi.py", line 165, in read mvals = tostrlist(xdi.meta_values, self.nmetadata) File "/xraylarch/share/larch/plugins/io/xdi.py", line 65, in Py3tostrlist return [str(i, 'ASCII') for i in (nitems*c_char_p).from_address(address)] File "/xraylarch/share/larch/plugins/io/xdi.py", line 65, in <listcomp> return [str(i, 'ASCII') for i in (nitems*c_char_p).from_address(address)] UnicodeDecodeError: ('ascii', b'3.1356369 \xc3\x85', 10, 11, 'ordinal not in range(128)’) Is this a plugin error or something else? I attached one of the files if anyone could test? I can open it in Athena. Thanks for any help, Chris ********************************************** Dr Christopher Patridge Associate Professor Dept of Chemistry SASE 315 716-829-8096 | patridgc@dyc.edumailto:patridgc@dyc.edu www.dyc.eduhttp://www.dyc.edu Social: Twitterhttp://www.twitter.com/drpatridgc [cid:0a129c79-2c47-40b9-8a0d-22bf08b7005d@namprd14.prod.outlook.com]
