OpTaliX Version 11.82

Changes to version 11.82:

OpTaliX now supports external glass catalogues, such as AGF files from Zemax. These catalogue files are converted to the internal glass catalogue format of OpTaliX (.csv) by a new command CONVAGF. Warning: Conversion of glass catalogues which already exist in OpTaliX may create ambiguities of the glass names. To avoid this, the corresponding glass catalogue in OpTaliX should be deactivated. This is accomplished in the menue item "Glass Manager" --> "Select Glass Catalogues". For further reading see the reference manual, §13.4

Updated glass catalogues: SCHOTT, OHARA, CDGM, HIKARI/NIKON, NHG, SUMITA, HOYA, RADHARD (radiation resistant)

Warning messages on obsolete glasses now work reliably, provided the option "Warn if glasses are obsolete" in the preferences section (EDI PREF) is checked.

OpTaliX-LT: The new release (11.80) now allows browsing the examples library via a browser/viewer dialogue, which was formerly only available in the PRO/EDU editions. This option can now be accessed from the main menue FILE --> EXAMPLES_LIBRARY or by the command EXAMP.

Wavefront in afocal modus (AFO) could have been inaccurate in very rare circumstances. The inaccurcy was very small (in the order order of fractions of nanometers), which explains why it was not detected so far, except in very exotic systems.

Minor changes.
