There is a new version of CHEKCELL for Windows Powder Indexing Helper Software available on the web. This is part of the LMGP Suite by Jean Laugier and Bernard Bochu. Chekcell takes the summary output from the CRYSFIRE Powder Indexing Suite by Robin Shirley (which links into Ito, Dicvol, Treor, Taup, Lzon, Kohl, Fjzn and Losh) New Features include: Chekcell now can handle non standard spacegroup settings. For example, when the cell is orthorhombic, the user can choose one of the six possible settings (abc, bca, etc...). In "Best Spacegroup" and "Best Solution" options, Chekcell automatically goes through all the settings It is also possible to do a "Best Spacegroup" searching on a manually entered cell. Best group or Best Solution can test a lower limit of checked reflections in order to make the test faster and the lists shorter. Can view the output results in Wordpad and cut/paste into other programs. Bug fixes include: The "Abort" button in the "Best Solution" option occassionally did not work as required. This has been fixed. Crysfire *.SUM "REREAD" button would not work under some circumstances. This has now been fixed Bugs relating to the above features have hopefully all been found prior to this release. ----------------------- Chekcell Download: UK: http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/ccp/web-mirrors/lmgp-laugier-bochu/ CA: http://ccp14.sims.nrc.ca/ccp/web-mirrors/lmgp-laugier-bochu/ AU: ftp://ftp.minerals.csiro.au/pub/xtallography/ccp14/ccp/web-mirrors/lmgp-laugier-bochu/ Chekcell Powder Indexing Helper Tool Tutorials via: http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/tutorial/lmgp/ Crysfire Powder Indexing Suite Tutorials and download: http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/tutorial/crys/ Crysfire Download: UK: http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/ccp/web-mirrors/crys-r-shirley/ CA: http://ccp14.sims.nrc.ca/ccp/web-mirrors/crys-r-shirley/ AU: ftp://ftp.minerals.csiro.au/pub/xtallography/ccp14/ccp/web-mirrors/crys-r-shirley/ -- Lachlan M.
