[phenixbb] Are TLS parameters applied when TLS refinement is OFF?

[Pavel Afonine]

Hi Mark,

you can have TLS selections in parameter file, however unless you ask 
refinement to use TLS they won't be used.

This allows you to keep selections in your file and gives you freedom to 
use them when you decide to.
