that sounds like what i was aiming for. One of the toughts i had was to
allow the old hack of just allowing the user to source a file provided
on the command line after all the default values have been set which
would then just contain tcl commands e.g. 'set this 1; set that 2' it's
a crude but very nice way to addpreferences to a scriptted program

that fine I had some feedback from frank on the nmrpipe list and he gave
me a complete rundown on the format (I will append the comments at the
end) I think the code I have here is slightly in error as you define the
sw as extending 1/2 a digital resolution either end of the spectrum
(i.e. no picket fence error!) and the output from ccpn doesn'yt
currently have the number of points (theses ar what the two 1's should
be first and last points) I will therefore talk to wim vranken about
sorting this so I can put the right corrections in.

Ah but I am afraid I think it is ! its because I do the eval to get the
folding flags in. This then causes a double substituion of the
expression causing the list that comes out of [noe peaks] to be
flattened to a string and a resulting in a bad function call see
http://www.equi4.com/wikis/wikit/1535 for an example This is an old
'feature' that has caught me before as they say eval is alittle evi. The
example code shows the general run of things....
proc test {} {
return [list 1 2 3]
}
%test
1 2 3
proc test2 args {
puts "$args - [lindex $args 0]"
}
%test2 [test]
{1 2 3} - 1 2 3
%eval test2 [test]
1 2 3 - 1
%eval test2 [list [test]]
{1 2 3} - 1 2 3

indeed this wthat I guessed! As it turns out in our current setup we
have no folded peak lists (we unfolded the lists in analysis)
