Hi everyone, I posted a new source tarball (horae-005.tar.gz) and new windows executables on my webpage today. Both Athena and Artemis have significant new features and bug fixes. Athena: The biggest new feature is the many new keyboard shortcuts. Here's a summary: Ctrl-t toggle marking of current group Ctrl-p e plot current in energy Ctrl-p k plot current in k-space Ctrl-p r plot current in R-space Ctrl-p q plot current in q-space Meta-p e plot marked in energy Meta-p k plot marked in k-space Meta-p r plot marked in R-space Meta-p q plot marked in q-space Ctrl-k select group above Ctrl-j select group below It is now possible to do much more work with Athena without taking your hands of the keyboard. You can now save derivative of mu(E) spectra to files. The auto-alignment algorithm changed slightly. Let me know if it is better or worse than before. You can detach the plot buttons from the main window. That's rather wacky, but people may like it. See the "Plot" menu. Artemis: I fixed a half dozen really serious bugs that were discovered during and after the recent analysis course at NSLS. I will certainly not claim that artemis is bug-free -- you just have to go find new ways to break it ;-) The most significant new feature is on the paths page. There is now a little box for the degeneracy. It is filled automagically with the degeneracy from the feffNNNN.dat file. It must be a number and must not be a variable. I hope this will help clarify the inherent confusion between N, S02, and other terms which affect the amplitude. There are menu items for setting all degeneracies to 1 or resetting them to their feffNNNN.dat values. Also I changed the background color of Artemis so that, if you have both Athena and Artemis open at the same time, they are easier to tell apart. The complete lists of changes and bug fixes are available on the web site. Extra special thanks this time to Mark Jensen (YeS, i fiXeD YouR bUg), Jia Liu (who was *very* patient in helping me track down some serious Artemis bugs, thanks!), Shelly Kelly (whose mouse avoidance regimen is proceeding nicely), and Scott Calvin (for color consultation). Have fun!
