Hi folks
I'm pleased to announce the release of Mosflm version 7.0.1 & iMosflm
version 0.5.3. They can be downloaded from
http://www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/harry/mosflm/ver701
and
http://www.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/harry/imosflm
respectively.
Note that earlier versions of either program will not work with these
latest releases - you will need to upgrade both.
Mosflm - changes since 6.2.6
============================
* Many changes which allow processing information to be communicated
between Mosflm and the new TclTk-based Graphical User Interface,
which is now called iMosflm. Mosflm itself can be run as before as
a standalone program, but can also be run from iMosflm. The
original X11 GUI, based on John Campbell's XDL_VIEW libraries is
still included and can be used if desired.
* Now checks to see if an image file is still being written
before attempting to process it.
* More improvements to the autoindexing to make it more robust in
cases where it failed previously.
* Build developed which will run (without the X11 graphics) on
MS-Windows, allowing iMosflm to run properly on that operating
system. It works on both XP and Vista, and may well work on 2000
and 98.
* Many small bug fixes which address rare but annoying problems.
Thanks go to everyone who has contributed their comments and bug reports
during the development stages.
iMosflm - changes since 0.5.2
=============================
* mostly bug fixes, e.g. filename parsing
* some user-definable locations for outputting files, e.g. the MTZ
file
* separation of experimental parameters into two lists, for the
detector and experimental set-up
* rudimentary command-line options (try starting with "imosflm
--help") - the list will grow
