Hi All,

Am facing a problem as with reading the map file generated by the FFT
program.  Neither my code or the Swiss PDB viewer is able to read the CCP4
map format generated by the FFT program.  Apparently the Map file generated
is of the Little Endian format while my code or Swiss PDB expect Big Endian
formats.  Is there a field in the CCP4 file which tells me whether the file
is in Little Endian or Big Endian.  I have come across both kinds.  Any
suggestions as to how to address this problem??

Thanks 
Ashwin.

Hi!

I am a green horn here and have been struggling to locate a routine or a
program which can help derive a Map from an MTZ file. Would be happy if
someone can guide me.

Thanks
