Citrine: 11-BM Argonne (.xye)

Ingester Description
An ingester for .xye files generated by the 11-BM beamline instrument for powder diffraction at the Advanced Photon Source in Argonne National Laboratory.
Description of accepted files (.xye)
This ingester reads and parses .xye files in which the data are listed in three columns: The 1st column is 2θ position (in degrees), 2nd is intensity, and 3rd is the standard uncertainty for the intensity values. It will ignore the file header information which is bracketed between the characters "/*" and "*/", and prefixed by a "#" character, except for the line that contains the measurement temperature which is read in cases where the user does not populate the temperature parameter field.
