We were thinking that AutoMR would be the interface for people with (relatively) straightforward problems, and that the Phaser-MR GUI would allow all of the fine control available from keyword (or indeed Python scripting) input. Of course, it might be a good idea to add a few more options to AutoMR and we're open to suggestions. If you don't like GUIs, there isn't a command-line equivalent to Phaser-MR, but you can always use a shell script.
Actually, there *is* a command-line equivalent to Phaser-MR, but it is undocumented because I didn't think anyone would use it. And as I just found out, it is somewhat difficult to figure out how to use. But if anyone is interested, the attached parameter file shows how to configure it - it was necessary to do this to get the GUI working but I also find this syntax easier to use than the old keyword input. So if you run this: phenix.phaser params.eff it will use the Phenix-style configuration file, but if you just run "phenix.phaser" with no arguments (or a shell redirect from a file), it will use the CCP4-style keyword input. -Nat
