Ron Stenkamp brought the same problem to my attention last week, thinking that it was a problem with render. After some poking around, we established conclusively that the labels were never making it into the Raster3D input file. Furthermore, if I recall correctly, the same molscript executable would produce labels when run on one machine but not another (Ron - please fill in details!). So I concluded that the problem was actually in some support library, but I do not know which one that would be. > The only problem compiling it under Mepis was that glutbitmap.h > did not exist.

When drawing in Raster3D mode, molscript indeed uses the GLUT library for fonts. So that is probably the source of the error. The version of GLUT that molscript was compiled against must match the version that is currently installed. -- Ethan A Merritt Biomolecular Structure Center University of Washington, Seattle 98195-7742
