Description: Rietveld program that allows interaction with the refinement process on a cycle by cycle basis using a graphic interface. The program is derived from the LHPM program which has its origins in the DWBS2.9/3.2 program of Wiles and Young, that in turn is a weak descendant of Rietveld?s original code and Alan Larsons space group code.
