Hi all,

Would it be possible to change the behaviour of coot real space refinement such 
that I can accept the results of refinement regardless of whether Coot thinks 
the refinement has converged or not?

Witness the following example of sphere refinement:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/exza8yl27s8g5fu/coot_slow_refine.mov?dl=0

This is not the most dramatic example, but even in this case, the refinement 
has more or less converged to my satisfaction after 20 or 30s, but it is 
another minute before coot will pop up the little box that allows me to accept 
the refinement results. Now, if at that point I do a dragged refinement, Coot 
is perfectly happy for me to accept the results of refinement (by pressing 
Enter) before convergence, but not in the initial phase. In many cases it takes 
considerably longer than this to converge to Coot's satisfaction.

I understand that this behavior might not be desirable all the time (it could 
easily be abused), but it would make refining large, low res structures 
**much** faster - perhaps Shift+Enter could allow override to accept, while 
Enter still results in the old behavior?

Cheers,
Oli.
