[Ifeffit] Plucking issue in the deglitching

Thanks Bruce, for this quick fix. Deglitching tool in Athena is working fine
after I replaced "DeglitchTruncate.pm" file in my installation directory
with the new one you just uploaded on github server.

Hi Shoaib,

You are indeed correct -- there is a mistake made in interpreting the point
clicked upon when using the deglitching tool.  The problem has to do with
the deglitching tool not using the energy shift value correctly when
interpreting the point clicked upon.

I will shortly be checking a fix into github and this fix will appear in the
next version of the Windows installer.

The short-term work-around is to set the energy shift to 0, go do your
deglitching, then rest the energy shift to the original value.  In your
case, change the energy shift from 2.767 to 0, then go to the deglitching
tool, then restore the value of 2.767 back on the main window.  Like all
work-arounds, that's a bit of a pain in backside, but it will allow to make
progress.

Thanks for the bug report.  As I often say here on the mailing list, useful
bug reports here on the mailing list help make the software better for
everyone!

Cheers,
B
