----- header of xfh.pro extracted on: Fri May 31 15:31:06 2013 ----- Documentation for /scisoft/xop2.3/src_idl/dabax/xfh.pro ----- ================================== xfh ================================== XFH is a widget based graphical interface to calculate structure factor of crystals. The data are taken from the DABAX data base. It access the following DABAX files: CrystalStructures.dat CrystalCell.dat f1f2_*.dat f0_CromerMann.dat,f0_CromerMann_old1968.dat,f0_WaasKirf.dat CUSTOMIZATION OF XFH INPUT PARAMETERS: -If you want to add(remove) another f1f2* file, just add(remove) it in any(all) directory of $DABAX_PATH. -If you want to add(remove) another f0 file, follow the inscructions given before. -If you want to modify the crystal list, do the following: a) copy the CrystalStructures.dat and CrystalCell.dat files to a given directory (i.e. current directory ".") b) Modify these files to add/remove/change the entries. Both files must have the same entries (or "scans"). c) Redefine $DABAX_PATH to include your new directoty: setenv DABAX_PATH = .:$DABAX_PATH d) Restart the application. DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROLS IN THE MAIN WINDOW: File: Xfh input parameters: This option allows to save the current parameters to a file for later loading. It also allows to save the current parameters as defaults for being used when the application is initialized. In the last case, the file is named "application".xop (where "application " is the name of the current XOP application) and is written in the directory pointed by the XOP_DEFAULTS_DIR environment variable (which must be set). The parameter file is ASCII and can be read and edited with care. Quit: to exit from the program Set_Parameters: Set Parameters: to define the parameters for the calculation. The same result is obtained pressing the "Set Parameters" button in the main Xfh window. Please refer to the information under the HELP button for a complete description of the parameters. After pressing the ACCEPT button, xfh starts running and creates a graphical window with the results. Set Defaults: Sets the default parameters. Show: Diaplay results Plot crystal parameters: performs a plot of the energy-dependent parameters (this option os only available for a number of energy points nonequal to one) Show crystal parameters: Show text information of the crystal parameters Show crystallographic parameters: Show parameters used to build the structure factor. Help: Shows the xfh help (this text). COPYRIGHT: XFH belongs to XOP package and it is distributed within XOP.
