Hi, This question was sent to our mailing list by someone who is not subscribed. For some reason, it was not in the administration queue on the list server, so I couldn't forward it along in the normal fashion. Here is Sander Bruun's question:
For some reason I am unable to import data directly from *.dat files in the new version of Athena. It says I may be needing a plugin, but I do not know how to install it. Can anybody help. It worked fine in some of the older versions of Athena, but I cannot find and install them now.
Sander, That's not enough information for me to answer the question. "*.dat" is not a file format. A file called "*.dat" can (and usually does!) contain almost anything. Without an example of the sort of file that is giving you trouble, I cannot possibly know what's going on. If your data comes from a particular beamline, it's possible that you simply need to enable that beamline's plugin. There are a couple plugins that come with the software related to specific beamlines at ESRF.... http://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/aug/other/plugin.html#athena%27spluginre... Cheers, B PS: If you subscribe to the mailing list (see http://millenia.cars.aps.anl.gov/mailman/listinfo/ifeffit), then you mail will be posted to the list without my intervention. -- Bruce Ravel ------------------------------------ bravel@bnl.gov National Institute of Standards and Technology Synchrotron Science Group at NSLS-II Building 535A Upton NY, 11973 Homepage: http://bruceravel.github.io/home/ Software: https://github.com/bruceravel Demeter: http://bruceravel.github.io/demeter/
