[Ifeffit] opening SSRL data with Athena

[Tsu-Chien Weng]

Hi, Bruce,

I have written codes in MATLAB to convert ASCII data into SSRL's binary data in 
order to use EXAFSPAK.  The binary format is guessed by dumping the data.  Maybe 
someone can use it as a start and come up with a plugin for Athena.
