> Seems I am having a bad week with coot.

Thanks for several very quick offers to send me a mol2 file or
other alternative description of my ligand, but I'm fine on that score. 
I have a cif dictionary from the Grade server that works 
in both coot and refmac.

I just wanted to point out a glitch in coot's built-in toolchain.
