Having now looked at your message, I must admit I am a little confused. If you allow me to paraphrase, I believe you say that if you run artemis from an X11 window using the command line, feff runs normally. On the other hand, if you run artemis using the double click application (the applet) to run artemis, feff doesn't work. This is very hard to understand as the only thing that is different (as you might have been able to see in my last post) is the environment variable, PGPLOT_DEV set in the runprog script is different (e.g. set to use aquaterm output). There is nothing that could ostensibly effect whether or not feff launches (it certainly doesn't use graphics). Paul On Sep 14, 2006, at 9:34 PM, Stefano Ciurli wrote:
Hello Matt,
Did you try using /Applications/Ifeffit/bin/feff6 as the preferred feff executable in Artemis? That's what the error message was suggesting you try.
I did try, no success
Can you verify that you have /Applications/Ifeffit/bin/feff6?
verified, I do have it.
In the meantime I made an interesting discovery that some of you will certainly be able to explain:
If I launch Artemis using the double click on the application icon I DO get the error message and feff does not run, regardless of which application I choose for the graphics
However:
If I launch the program from the terminal window, I do not get the question on whether to choose Xwindow or Aquaterm, the default being apparently Xwindow PGPLOT, and everything runs smoothly.
So, what is the origin of the error message that I get when I launch the program from the icon?
