Korndoerfer Sent: Tue 4/24/2007 5:10 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ccp4bb] directly write .mol or .sdf files dear colleagues, after working around the topic for a while now or avoiding it alltogether, it has now become time to ask: could some friendly soul point me to a program that would create a .mol or .sdf file from 1. a refmac dictionary file (to yield a .mol file randomly positioned and oriented) or 2. from a pdb file and a refmac dictionary file (to yield a .mol file in a specific position, orientation, conformation) ??? 1. there can be no GUI or manual interaction involved. 2. it needs to work with the refmac dictionary , else i feel i can not trust the connectivities. i have quite a collection of own dictionary files (all done, checked or fixed-up over the time with the sketcher) that i would like to draw upon ... greetings ingo
