CP TO MRC - Copy SPIDER file To MRC format file

PURPOSE

Copies a SPIDER-format image/volume file into a MRC-format file. NOTE: This operation now converts current (post 1999) MRC format input. This format is sometimes referred to as CCP4. Older MRC format output is no longer supported.

USAGE

.OPERATION: CP TO MRC

 ' <or>
CP TO MRC8
['CP TO MRC' creates a MRC MODE=2 file containing 32 bit floating point values with currrent machine byte-ordering.
'CP TO MRC8' creates a MRC MODE=0 file containing 8 bit integer values.]

.SPIDER INPUT FILE: SPI000
[Enter the SPIDER file you want to copy.]

.MRC OUTPUT FILE: MRC000
[Enter name for obsolete MRC format output file.]

.ENTER X,Y ORIGIN OF MRC IMAGE: -9999
[Default value for origin (+1 if NX, NY odd) is:
(X,Y) = ((NX/2) + 1, (NY/2) + 1).
Enter -9999 if you want to use the default values.]

NOTES

1. 'CP TO MRC8' creates a MRC MODE=0 file containing 8 bit integer values.
   'CP TO MRC' creates a MRC MODE=2 file containing 32 bit floating point values with current machine byte-ordering.

2. Can not copy SPIDER Fourier format files or SPIDER stacks.

3. To convert SPIDER stacks or pre year 2000, old MRC format files I suggest you try the em2em EM file format conversion package.
