I am just now editing it again using nedit. I edited it before in textedit.
That was probably my problem! And no, when I look at it using more, it is
all messed up.

I edited Chris's file. New error.

 !!! ERROR !!! CANNOT READ XPARM.XDS

So now, I followed Jurgen's advice of JOB=ALL and it is running. But will
JOB = ALL try to make me strategize data collection after the fact?

I am yet to figure out how to work XDS viewer to see how it is progressing.
*Is it possible to see progress by looking at images in real time like for
denzo and d*trek?*

To Mark Brooks: SMV may not be required because it did say that XDS figures
it out on its own.

This may be entirely different issue or, I don't know (yet) what it is.
Doesn't running xds generate these files for use in successive steps?

I did consider the editor problem but (idiot!) dismissed it.
