[Ifeffit] [Fwd: Re: Mac intel OSX - Feff6 whereabouts]

[Katie Evans]

Thanks for the advice, but sadly it didn't work.  I also tried deleting
the whole .horae and Perl folders and then reinstalling iXAFS, but that
didn't help either.  I checked the artermisrc file and it does say feff6
in the correct place, it just doesn't seem to be able to find feff6.

Any more tips?  Cheers, Katy

Hi Katy,

I ran into this problem about two weeks ago. I have no idea why, it   had
worked fine for a few months before that. Paul's suggestion
worked for me.

is to delete the preferences file for artemis which is located   in your
home directory under ".horae" and is named "artemisrc".    Note that the
"." (dot) in the directory name.  This causes the   finder and the
default unix file listing "ls" command to not output   the name as such
preference files are considered "noise".  To

I checked it and it was indeed Feff6.
