[sdpd] Update on the LMGP Crystallographic Software Suite

[L.M.D.Cranswick... @dl.ac.uk (L. Cranswick)]

(As celref and the spacegroup software can be quite useful to
spacegroup assignment of powder diffraction data, also Cc'ing
this to the sdpd list)


There are new versions of the  LMGP (Laboratoire des  Materiaux et
du Génie Physique de l'Ecole Supérieure de Physique de Grenoble)
suite for Windows by Jean Laugier and Bernard Bochu

Including updated tutorial run-throughs at:

  http://www.ccp14.ac.uk/tutorial/lmgp/

The updated programs are:

        Celref (unit cell refinement software - also useful for
            spacegroup assignment from powder data)
        Equiv (spacegroup software)
        Indx (spacegroup, HKLs, d-spacings and multiplicities software)
        Poudrix (Calculated Powder Pattern software including  Anomalous
                 dispersion calculation for all X-ray wavelengths)
        Dispano (Anomalous dispersion calculation software)
        Wulff (Wull net software)

The main changes over the previous versions are:
   Use of a more modern Delphi compiler,
   misc bug fixes
  and minor mods, improvements
