Re: [ccp4bb] Which Coot for Scientific Linux 6.3
Hi Fred, on today's PC hardware, a 64bit Linux should be used. We have been using coot-0.7-pre-1-revision-3965-binary-Linux-x86_64-centos-5-python-gtk2 on our 64bit SL 6.3 systems without problems. I just now installed coot-0.7-pre-1-revision-4360-binary-Linux-x86_64-centos-6-python-gtk2 on these systems and it seems to run well. Is there an error message if you try that?

Re: [ccp4bb] Off Topic: help locating CNS data
If you are looking for reflection files, the tricky part is that in CNS format they did not include the unit cell parameters. Just to locate them, it may be helpful to know that they contain a header that looks like this NREFlection= 49238 ANOMalous=FALSe { equiv. to HERMitian=TRUE} DECLare NAME=FOBS DOMAin=RECIprocal TYPE=REAL END DECLare NAME=SIGMA DOMAin=RECIprocal TYPE=REAL END DECLare NAME=TEST DOMAin=RECIprocal TYPE=INTE END so if you are in *nix environment something like this egrep -rl '^[ ]DECLare NAME.*DOMAin=RECIprocal' . I am sure perl masters will laugh at my awkward attempts at using regular expressions. Cheers, Ed.

[ccp4bb] dmmulti cross-crystal averaging question
We are working with two crystals. Both crystals have a domain that is not in the other. Both crystals have one domain that is the same in each. We'd like the average the one domain between the crystals, but leave the other domains unaveraged. How do we describe that to dmmulti? thanks, Dave --
Re: [ccp4bb] dmmulti cross-crystal averaging question
The domain common to both crystals constitutes the averaging mask. (you can make it around the pdb using ncsmask). As for describing it to dmmulti, you need the rotation matrix which maps it from crystal 1 to crystal 2. The rotation matrix for crystal one is always the identity matrix. You will put the matrix mapping the domain from 1 to 2 as the rotation matrix for the second crystal. You may want to obtain a rotation matrix optimized against your current density first before supplying it to dmmulti (the rave utilities will do this for you). When you get to dmmulti, output the solvent masks and make sure they're accurate (or alternatively you can supply a solvent mask for each crystal separately).
