CIF_FCALC(1)

πŸ’– CIF_FCALC(1) β€” like, the general commands manual bestie edition ✨

okay so welcome to the glow-up of cif_Fcalc, a little icon from the General Commands Manual section 1, and she is ready to spill all her secrets 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

cif_Fcalc β€” compute the structure factors from CIF files. that's it, that's the whole personality πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

cif_Fcalc --options input1.cif input*.cif

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Compute the structure factors from CIF files. literally what she said πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ OPTIONS πŸ¦‹

  • --max-Fhkl-number β€” selection of sorted (numerically and by Friedel's law) Fhkl number. yes bestie, sorted both ways, she's thorough like that ✨
  • --external_CR_table β€” use Cromer Mann coefficients from an external source: table 6.1.1.4. pulling receipts from outside the group chat πŸ“‹
  • --max-resolution β€” selection of resolution. the vibe check on how zoomed-in you wanna be πŸ”
  • --isotropic-Tf β€” use the isotropic temperature factor for structure factor calculations. keep it even, keep it cute 🌈
  • --Miller-indexes "5 6 7 -1 2 -6" β€” provide limits on the Miller indices as (hmax, hmin, kmax, kmin, lmax, lmin).
    • Default: '10 -10 10 -10 10 -10'.
lowkey those are a lot of numbers but she asked for all six, so here's all six πŸŽ€
  • --get-hkl-data β€” providing of a path to a COD file which contains hkl data. drop the location, she'll find it πŸ“
  • --use-perl-parser β€” use the development CIF parser written in Perl. the experimental one, the artsy one 🎭
  • --use-c-parser β€” use the faster C/Yacc CIF parser. this is the default, no cap ⚑
