Dear Petr,

a map needs amplitudes and phases. In the case of the usual maps (2Fobs-Fcalc 
and Fobs-Fcalc) calculated for twinned data, one can either 
detwin the amplitudes, or take twinning into account in the Fcalc term. 

When calculating the anomalous map, I believe that detwinning of anomalous 
differences would add a lot of noise. 
Nevertheless you could try the detwin program; in the best case you get a noisy 
anom map but with the ghost peaks 
suppressed ... not sure if this can be done in ccp4i2 .

Taking twinning into account in the Fcalc term is not necessary since the Fcalc 
are not used in an anomalous map.
So I guess the best way is just calculating the map as if the data were not 
twinned. You may get additional peaks 
at a height of 0.29/0.71 the height of the correct peaks (and this probably 
depends on whether the crystal symmetry has a
rotation axis parallel to the twin axis).

Probably I should have read Z. Dauter's "Twinned crystals and anomalous 
phasing" in Acta Cryst. (2003). D59, 2004-2016
before writing this ... 

Good luck,
Kay
