[a] Variance-covariance matrix is saved according to REGFEspecifications.

[b] If n is greater than 0, list on every cycle, else only on the last cycle. 1 to list only inverted matrix and shift vector, 2 to list direct and inverted matrices and both vectors.

noref [a] 1- non-refined parameter(s)  

[a] General parameters are: scale- skf , crystal shape- shp , twinning parameter- twi , extinction parameter- ext , dispersion parameter- dsp , real part of dispersion- re , imaginary part of dispersion- im , overall displacement parameter- uov . The syntax to address a general parameter is: param(number). Atomic parameters are: x, y, z, u, u11, u22, u33, u12, u13, u23, pop. The syntax to address an atomic parameter is: param(atom name). Sets of parameter can be grouped using (param1/param2), (number1/number2), (atom1/atom2).

ref [a] 1- refined parameter(s)  

[a] See noref line for the description of the parameters.

constr 1 constraint written as :  
    subject parameter = constant μ factor * reference parameter ± … [a]  

[a] There can be more than one reference parameter. See noref line for the description of the parameters. Blanks are not accepted in the field.

limsft 1 shift-limited parameter [a]  
  2 weight of pseudo-observation [b]  

[a] See noref line for the description of the parameters.

[b] If the weight is less than 1, it is assumed to be the Levenberg-Marquardt parameter.
