[Ifeffit] Mark Jensen's artemis bug report

[Bruce Ravel]

Hi,

Yesterday, Mark Jensen alerted me to two problems in the current
version of artemis.  The first is a situation wherein artemis ignores
certain guess parameters.  The second is a situation in which artemis
fails to display the header information from the feffNNNN.dat file as
in this screenshot:

The first problem is due to the fact that artemis gets confused by
capital letters in parameter names.  That is, "deltar" is ok, but
"deltaR" is not.  This will be fixed in the next release.  The
work-around for this problem is to avoid capital letters in parameter
names.

The second problem was for the somewhat strange situation of running
artemis on a unix machine and having made the feffNNNN.dat files on a
windows machine.  Because of a mistake that I made in the code that
fills in the text box in the picture above, artemis got confused by
the different end-of-line conventions on windows and unix.  How
embarassing!  This will also be fixed soon.  The work-around is to run
feff and artemis on the same kind of computer.

I want to thank Mark for the excellent bug report and for his help in
troubleshooting. 

Regards,
B
