Dear Radu,
Nice to know that your problem is sorted and that you are pleased
with the results you are getting from BUSTER.
Clemens had drafted an answer along exactly the same lines and
circulated it around the team for comments, but we were momentarily
distracted by something else and the CCP4BB experts beat us to it :-)
I should say that this is not a representative case: we usually
respond quickly and spare no pains to give users the help they need.
With best wishes,
Gerard.
