Thanks. I will try the comprehensive script. Originally I just wanted to see what happens if I do NCS averaging only without solvent flattening or histogram match, to see whether all NCS units are the same. Anyway, it is always better to use more of them.
Also thanks for pointing out that the REFI is not necessary for the identity op.
