----- header of xurgent.pro extracted on: Fri May 31 15:31:05 2013 ----- Documentation for /scisoft/xop2.3/src_idl/sources/xurgent.pro ----- ============================== Xurgent ===================================== Xurgent is an widget based graphical interface to calculate spectra of an undulator insertion devices. It interfaces the program URGENT written by R.P.Walker and B.Diviacco (see Help/Urgent) DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTROLS IN THE MAIN WINDOW: File: Xurgent 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. Urgent file: This option allows to load/write the current parameter and result files for further calculations. The used file formats are those used by URGENT. Therefore, they can be used to run URGENT without the interface or to import URGENT files created outside the XUrgent application. Write Files for XOP/Optics: Saves the current undulator spectrum in the SRCOMPE (flux) and SRCOMPW (Power) files to be used for the other XOP application from Optics menu. Quit: to exit from the program Set_Parameters: K(gap) Tool: This tool permits to calculate the deflection parameter K as a function of the magnet gap. Set Parameters: to define the parameters for the calculation. The same result is obtained pressing the "Set Parameters" button in the main XUrgent window. Please refer to the information under the HELP button for a complete description of the parameters. After pressing the ACCEPT button, URGENT starts running. Set Defaults: Sets the default parameters. Show: Display results Plot Results: Plots the URGENT results. Show Numerical Results: Displays the URGENT result file. Help: Shows the URGENT help and the XURGENT help (this text).
