Hi folks, This morning, a user pointed out an interesting problem in any version of Artemis up to and including 0.7.010. I thought I should mention it on the list because I would be surprised if no one else runs into this particular issue. Artemis currently does no error checking to determine if an atoms.inp file is actually an atoms.inp file. Similarly Artemis does no error checking to confirm the feff-ness of a feff.inp file. This is a problem because there are separate menu entries in the File menu for importing atoms.inp and feff.inp file. Different things happen when you select these two items. If you choose the wrong kind of file, Artemis will get confused trying to read one file type as the other file type. This will lead to lots of error messages and may result in project files that cannot be saved and re-read by Artemis. Currently there is no better solution than to be sure that, when you intend to import a feff.inp file. you select a feff.inp file and, when you intend to import an atoms.inp file, you select an atoms.inp file. If you make this mistake, the best solution may be to quit Artemis and try again. Clearly this is an untenable situation. Building enough intelligence into Artemis to distinguish between atoms.inp and feff.inp files is now high on my to-do list.

Hi all, I'm currently running a YBCO temperature series fit for 8 different temperatures, 3 edges, at the same time. I was wondering what the maximum number of FEFF calculations is, if there even is such a maximum. Also, I had gotten a new ifeffit_10.dll file sometime back in May of this year that increased my maximum number of paths up to 1024. I'm running the newest version of IFEFFIT, and its ifeffit_10.dll is dated some time in July, but has 256 set as the maximum number of paths, which I'll run into real soon. I was wondering if it's alright to overwrite the new .dll file with the older one that I had gotten before. Also, if at all possible, soon there will be more than 8 temperatures because we're going back real soon to finish out the data series. Is there anyway for there to be more than 1024 paths? Thanks, - Sean X. Luo Sarah Lawrence College
Sean, The ifeffit_10.dll that comes in the Windows installer is built to support 256 Feff file, 256 paths, and up to 16 data sets. But there is also a version of ifeffit_10.dll that supports 1024 Feff files, 1024 paths, and 16 data sets. This version can be copied into the main Ifeffit directory. I'm pretty sure all Ifeffit applications will have to be quit before you can do this copying. The alternative version of ifeffit_10.dll can be found in the build_setup\dlls\IFF1.2.6_MPATHS1024 folder under the main Ifeffit directory or at http://cars9.uchicago.edu/ifeffit/src/Win32_dlls/1.2.6/MPATHS_1024/ Hope that helps, --Matt
