At the end the problem is about the file format used to store the

By definition, the specfile format is locale C based as it is the format and locale used by SPEC.


do you thing that it should be possible to use a LOCAL neutral file
format to avoid thoses problem in the futur ?


For actual data, the best alternative file format recognized by PyMca is HDF5.

For the theoretical data used by PyMca, I still consider specfile is a good choice because:

- the end users can simply use "vi" and change the theoretical constants used by the program
- they can easily access the data them using other tools

This opinion can evolve as the synchrotron users get more and more confident on HDF5 and get used to edit HDF5 files with the appropriate tools.

Best regards,

Armando
