I've cc'd this email to the avogadro discussion mailing list, someone there may be more familiar with what you need. I'm not sure what you mean by a "topology file", and how it would relate to the forcefield? Could you provide an example of what such a file would contain? You've mentioned bond properties (angles, torsions, etc) -- perhaps the "report" format would provide what you are looking for. Open your molecule in Avogadro and select "File > Save as". Save it with a ".report" extension, e.g. "c60-opt.report". This will produce a text file that contains a distance matrix, bond angles, and torsion angles. See the attached for an example. There are many more formats that can be used that may be useful, like the "gzmat" format which produces a zmatrix. A full list of supported extensions and their descriptions is here: http://openbabel.org/docs/dev/FileFormats/Overview.html If you're on linux, you can also perform these conversions on the command line with the "babel" command: babel -i[input extension] [inputfile] -o[output extension] [outputfile] So for the pdb file you sent, babel -ipdb c60-opt.pdb -oreport c60-opt.report will produce the c60-opt.report file.
