Hi Ian,

just wanted to mention that the tool is written by Ralf. I guess references
are:

Acta Cryst. (1999). A55, 383-395
Algorithms for deriving crystallographic space-group information
R. W. Grosse-Kunstleve

Acta Cryst. (2002). A58, 60-65
Algorithms for deriving crystallographic space-group information. II.
Treatment of special positions
R. W. Grosse-Kunstleve and P. D. Adams

All the best,
Pavel
