[phenixbb] mlhl refinement

[Florian Schmitzberger]

Hi Tom and Nat,

I started the Autosol with selenium sites found by ShelxD. So no  
substructure search was carried out; just phasing and density  
modification.

In this case I don't see a file exptl_fobs_phases_freeR_flags.mtz  
produced anywhere in the directory (and also not in TEMP0).  The mtz  
files I see being written out are: F_ano.; phaser, resolve and then  
overall_best_denmod_map_coefficients (overall_denmod_map_coefficients  
does also not have the assigned R_free flag anymore).

So I am confused. Which mtz should I use then?

Florian
