 however they are related by the sqrt(N).

 .SH HISTOGRAM OPTIONS
 
 You can choose to set the min and maximum q value [units are inverse meters] 
-with:
---q_min=<number>
-and 
---q_max=<number>
-The default value is to use the entire detector setup in the .geom file
-(loaded wiht the -g flag).

 You can also adjust the number of histogram bins wiht:
 --bins=<intiger>
 
 Scaling can be set to produce linearly, quadratically or cubicly spaced q
-values using:
- --spacing=<type>  possible types are:
-	linear      : linear (default)
-	q2          : even spacing in Wilson plots (quadratic)

 .SH DATA TYPE OPTIONS
 
 Powder_plot can accept .stream, .hkl, or .h5 files as input parameters.  For
 the stream many choices exist for assembling the powder these can be accesed
 using the --data=<type> flag.  Possible flags are:
-	reflection  : uses peak positons from indexed reflection 
-	hkl         : uses the hkl list from indexed reflections (requires pdb 
-	              file)
-	d           : uses the 1/d list from indexed reflections (default)
-	peaks       : uses all peaks found from peak search
-	h5          : all points in h5, excluding bad regions
+ reflection  : uses peak positons from indexed reflection 
+ hkl         : uses the hkl list from indexed reflections (requires pdb 
+ 	              file)
+ d           : uses the 1/d list from indexed reflections (default)
+ peaks       : uses all peaks found from peak search
+ h5          : all points in h5, excluding bad regions
 
 Reflection differs from hkl or d as each crystal may index with a sligtly
 different unit cell size.  The peaks option uses the peak lists and includes
 and peaks (regardless if they indexed).
 
 A few other implemented flags to give better control are:
---no-sat-corr	Don't correct values of saturated peaks using a table included
-		in the HDF5 file.
---only-indexed	Use with -data=peaks or h5 if you want to use the peak list of
-		only indexed patterns. (Useful for seeing changes from paterns
-		that do not index.)
---no-q-scaling	Use with .hkl files if you want to not scale the powder by 1/q^2
---ring-corr	Use if you want to scale the powder plot to correct for the 
-		fractional area sampled of the powder ring. (Useful for
-		detectors with gaps.)
---use-redundancy	Use with .hkl files if you want to use the number of 
-			measurements and not the number of symetrical equivelent
-			reflections as the number of time a reflection occurs 
-			in the powder
