Thanks, Patrick for your reply. I am using ARTS 2.2 as I am having problems getting the latest version to run. This is not ideal, I'd rather run the most recent version, but I am finding an error message "[module] requires the language dialect "cxx17" , but cmake does not know the compile flags to use to enable it.". I've updated all my compilers, but does not seem to fix this issue. If anyone has any experience with this then do let me know.
Anyway, version 2.2 runs for clear-sky, so until I get the later version going this is fine. I have compiled with fortran options to enable the Tmatrix code, and I can use it to produce single scattering xml files. These however, do not appear to be the format needed by the test file TestDOIT, and I am getting xml syntax errors reported. If there are any other sources of information out there with a few more detailed examples on how to use this for clouds, I would really interested to see them.

This could need that you set some compilation flag. Long time since I used v2.2. The method I talk about is now called scat_data_singleTmatrix. I think it had the same name in v2.2, but I am not sure.
