Hi there,
I am glad to have some e-mails from the Rietveld users...
Actually the software I wrote include an hkl generation (now only) for primitive
cells. But this task is very simple to test ...In fact in this software I
included some other routines (a shell for dicvol or even something like your
OVERLAP) and it is in my intention to make it for whole pattern fitting
(someday...).
Concerning the unit cell refinement a lot of people are refining unit cells only
with d's, and not from whole powder pattern (especially when the compound is
known), for instance when measuring some unit cell parameters for a lot of
samples (solid-solutions, etc)...
What is very difficult to do (and most important!) is the indexation and this is
something I work on, although I doubt I would ever make a package as good as
TREOR or DICVOL...
