Batch fitting of X-ray Fluorescence Spectra

Synopsis

pymcabatch [OPTIONS] [FILES]

Description

Loops over a series of input files to which the same fitting  parameters can be applied. The setup of the fit configuration  is usually made via the main PyMca application.

The program stores the fitted parameters inside the IMAGES  directory created in the user specfified output directory. The  pymcapostbatch tool can perform further analysis via correlation  tools.

The user can also request an HTML report. This is much slower  but can be convenient to browse the results with a Web browser.

This tool is also accessible via the Tools menu of the main  PyMca window application.

Examples

pymcabatch
   Open a dialog to select input files, fit configuration, output
   directory and output parameters.
    pymcabatch --cfg=fitconfig.cfg --outdir=/tmp/ *.mca
   Fit all the .mca files in current directory using the specified
   confifuration file fitconfig.cfg and stores the output in /tmp

pymcabatch --cfg=fitconfig.cfg --outdir=/tmp/ --listfile=inputfiles
   Same as above but taken the files from the inputfiles file. This file
   is just a text file with one file path in each line.

pymcabatch --cfg=fitconfig.cfg --outdir=/tmp/ --concentrations=1 --listfile=inputfiles
   Same as above but calculating the concentrations.

Caveats

This tool, when used in command line mode, could run fully Qt  independent because in that case it uses Qt just for showing  the progress bar.
