Hi Bruce, Thnks--your response helped me track down the nature of the problem. It turns out that if I "wash" the files.dat and paths.dat files by opening them on a pc and then saving them again, Artemis then does a little better, allowing me to read in path files that have themselves been washed. I suspect if I washed every text file in the directory, it might work smoothly (maybe I'll try running a calculation with only a handful of paths and doing that). The interesting thing to me is that the behavior is indeed platform-independent...Artemis on the Mac apparently needs the Feff files to have the pc end-of-line termination. :) Does anyone out there have a simple way to btach convert a whole bunch of files from Mac CR line breaks to pc CR/LF line breaks? I'm not part of the linux or unix worlds, but can use either Windows XP or OS X methods. --Scott Calvin Sarah Lawrence College At 02:11 PM 5/24/2007, Bruce Ravel wrote:
I see the same problem using the two files you sent. My best guess for the source of the problem is that Artemis is not finding the "files.dat" and "paths.data" (or possibly "path00.dat") files in the same place as the "feff.inp" and "feffNNNN.dat" files. Artemis needs those files to build the interpretation page and does not handle their absence gracefully.
