Eleanor Dodson also mentioned offline that the CCP4 program ROTMAT can do the 
calculation.  At first I thought that you would have to use a separate run for 
each NCS operator, but you can give multiple input angles with ROTMAT as well.

I will have to sort out which angle conventions I want in ROTMAT or glrf, and I 
haven't succeeded in matching the ones from Liang's sample job for glrf yet, 
but here's a sample job for ROTMAT:

  rotmat << eof > rotmat.log
  CRYSTAL NUMBER 1 CELL 30 30 40 90 90 90
  CRYSTAL NUMBER 1 ORTH 1
  CRYSTAL NUMBER 1 SYMM P422
  INPUT CCP4 ALPHA BETA GAMMA 40 70 180
  INPUT CCP4 ALPHA BETA GAMMA 90 90 90
  OUTPUT CCP4 PHI PSI KAPPA
  END
  eof

Best wishes,

Randy
