SaveDASC: Incorrect number of lines

[Martyn Gigg]

From Spencer

in making ascii files for dave it turns out that there are two options. PAN (the DAVE fitting routine) doesnt seem to like the 'dasc' format, even though they sort of look the same.... but in fact I went into them and there is a slight difference with the number of lines. Can you look into this?
 
Also, the Q-values are not translated, only spectrum numbers? Any ideas.

Vicky,

None of the team over here know anything about Dave. Could you take a look at this? Spencers email address for clarifications is spencer.howells@…

I ran the algorithm on the workspace loaded from the file and then loaded the ASCII file into the PAN fitting part of DAVE version 2.1 beta. Everything went smoothly.
