Hi,

        I'm trying to run artemis on my Mac on which one I have used Matt's installer (ifeffit-1.2.6_Mac10.3.dmg). Actually, I'm
 unable to run a two shells fit , even for Cu. Therefore, I go back
 to the 1st shell alone fit: it works (idem for Zr, a crazy stuff
 because for hcp we need two shells, but anyway. BUT EVEN for a ONE
 shell fit it returns an error:

 The following message was trapped by Artemis:

 This message was dumped to a file:

 Please include that file along with your explanation when
 you make a bug report.


 What is strange is that I can save the project in such a condition,
 eg artemis behaves as if there is no error (the artemis palette is
 active while it is empty for a 2 shells fit and inactive, I cann't
 close it for exemple by cliquing on the red button: all windows are
 frozen)! Looking at the the monitor for activity, I see that Perl was using 99% of the CPU! In fact artemis crashes when trying to write the log file. The only way to go out from is to kill artemis in the X11 terminal window.

I must say that I have asked to one of my friend in Paris (G. Hug) to make the install on his machine and he experienced exactely the same punition!

Both we are using G5 based Mac. I suspect Perl and/or Tk to be not fully compatible with this CPU. Therefore my question is simple: has anybody been able to run artemis (version 0.7.007) on G5? Must I update horae and how to do it?

Cheers


Michel
