[Ifeffit] ATHENA: \\\"you have not used any memory yet\\\"

[Claire Gervais]

Hi Bruce,

Here are some snapshots of my screen. As you may see, no error
messages in the terminal and no OK button. The snapshots can be a
little bit misleading because the cursor is in fact running (little
wheel rolling and rolling on).

Everything is gray and I cannot do anything else than closing the
"data columns" window, which allows me to take control over, but
without any file loaded.

Claire

PS: Don't pay attention to the quality of the data, they are ugly. :-)
