Bruce, I was one of the participants of this year's EXAFS short course at BNL last week. It was a great course and I have learnt a lot about the latest of what's happening in the field. I am having trouble downloading the correct version of Artemis from the website. I have downloaded Ifeffit 1.2.5a.exe from the website (I have Windows 2000) and when I am trying to open Artemis it opens the 0.6 version instead of the latest 0.7 version. Could you please point out what I might be doing wrong and what's the best way to download the suite of EXAFS softwares? Many thanks in advance.

Sabyasachi, First off, let me repeat one thing that was said during the course: These questions are best directed to the mailing list. Helping new users solve installation problems is among the many purposes of the list. By asking a question of the list rather than of me directly, you get to tap into a much larger pool of knowledge. As you can see, I have forwarded this email to the list. The mailing list isn't the only splendid source of information available to the Ifeffit newbie. We also have a Frequently Asked Questions page at http://cars9.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/ifeffit/faqwiz The FAQ is great -- it contains tons of useful information and it's a wiki. That means that anyone in the Ifeffit community can share knowledge by authoring or editing a FAQ entry. Pretty cool! There are FAQ entries that discusses the Windows installer and updater at great length: http://cars9.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/ifeffit/faqwiz?req=all#2.4 http://cars9.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/ifeffit/faqwiz?req=all#2.8 If that does not help you solve your problem, post a question to the list and I am sure that one of the Windows experts who reads the list will be happy to help you out.
