Hello all,

Thanks again for all the responses for the Xedplot manual. I stand
corrected since I said there wasn't one. Tom Pratum sent me a copy of the
Xspec manual that Bruker published in 1993 (part #Z30750). This is exactly
what should do the trick! Bruker also sent me a couple of other documents
that might be of use.

I would also like help please: My SGI O2 crashed when I was working with
Xedplot on it with our DRX400 NMR instrument. I had to step a way for a
while and upon returning a few hours later to run a sample, the lock was
inoperative (an error message indicating so when I activated the lock
window with the LOCKDISP command). I tried again to activate the lock
window with no luck, so I checked all the hardware in the back. The
computer hadn't been moved and it's strategically placed to avoid any
accidental interaction with the cabling. Everything seemed fine and tight
when all of a sudden I heard a soft sound of a computer shutdown and sure
enough the SGI O2 died. I turned off all power and inspected all the
components and nothing appears to be fried or worn. I am absolutely at a
loss as to what happened.

Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon and/or know what to do?

Thanks for any help in advance,
Paul
