Hi Everyone,
I have a new version of PC-GSAS.EXE that works in both Win95/98 and
WinNT/2000 and have put the executable in
ftp://ftp.lanl.gov/public/gsas/windows. There is also a new version for
Linux in the directory /linux-beta. The main change is to make the exp &
raw powder data files direct access with 82 character records each
terminated with CR/LF. Thus, these files can be easily read and edited
without any need for conversion. Their structure is identical to that for
MS Windows so these files can be moved between operating systems without
conversions as well. EXPEDT in Linux should convert your old Linux files to
the new format. A conversion utility, CONVFILE, is also provided to do this
job. Because of this format change Brian Toby's expgui may need some
revision - Brian is working on this - but I wanted folks to try this
version & let me know of bugs. This Linux version was compiled on RedHat
7.0 and linked to the downward compatible libraries so it should run in
RedHat 6.2 or better (& equivalent).
