makep4p: export some core data to a p4p file

makep4p reads a unit cell file (either .x or .rmat), plus a single image file header, and writes out information in the p4p format that can be used for communication with other Bruker Nonius software.

Usage:

makep4p [filenames and options]

Without any arguments, the program will look for the most recent unit cell file in the current directory, the file "absorb.ins", and the most recent image file. It will use this to construct a p4p file. An alternative unit cell file can be given on the command line, as well as an alternative image file name.

By default the program writes the output to the file "smart.p4p". The output can be directed to a different file by either specifying the name of another p4p file on the command line, or by using the "write=outputfilename" option.

All options for reading unit cells apply. The "write=xxxx.p4p" option can be used to specify the name of the output file. If no output file name is specified, the file "smart.p4p" will be created. If a ".sca" or ".hkl" file is specified on the command line, the best unit cell parameters corresponding to that file is retrieved (for a .sca file, that is from the corresponding .out file, for a .hkl file from the corresponding .par file). Please note that in all cases, the orientation matrix written to the P4P file is the orientation matrix for the .x or .rmat file!
