The easiest way to combine multiple crystals and renaming datasets for
Scala is to use Pointless, available from the CCP4 prerelease site.
You can't use CAD on unmerged files: the older programs Rebatch &
Sortmtz can also be used
Note the if you are merging multiple crystals, you are essentially
creating a composite "crystal" so all parts to be merged must have the
same XNAME & DNAME
