=09Happy new year !
There's a new version of Fox upcoming. I put test versions before the=20
holidays (precompiled and source packages) in the usual 'test' directory:
ftp://ftp.unige.ch/pub/soft/crystal/fox/test/
It would be great if you had time to test these packages, and report a=
ny=20
success of failure with them. I'll make the new release next week if=20
everything goes OK.
I did not want initially to make a new release before the next major=20
changes upcoming, but the serious spg bug required a fix...
Changelog
#### 1.3 - december 2002
NEW FEATURES
* Added scattering power for a sphere, e.g. to modelize a
disordered fullerene.
* Added the option to use pseudo-crystallographic symmetry in a
Crystal structure (i.e. use a spacegroup which is not allowed
by the unit cell). Could be useful for phase transitions.
* Added data format for FullProf formats 4 (synchrotron) and=20
6 (multi-detector, LLB G42)
* Now more than 100 atoms can be displayed in a ZScatterer unit.
* Added the ability to set relative limits on all scatterer
translations from their current positions.
* Added the ability to run Fox without the graphical interface,
once all objects to be optimized have been setup and saved in
a xml file (see the reference part of the manual).

BUG FIXES
* Fix serious bug in the dtermination of systematic extinctions,
which lead to missing reflections for (body|face)-centered
spacegroups with a center of symmetry not on the origin
(e.g. for Fd3m (Si,...))
* Fixed various bugs in the display and update of powder patterns
