It certainly is! But it is too much data for me ... I don't understand it.

Well, that would help.

Truth is, I don't want to design the algorithm ... I assume that someone
else has already done it.

The people at the PDB have converted everythign to CIF ... what algorithm
did they use?

Boy, these files look awfully big and ugly to me.

Assuming that CIF follows the IUPAC standard, I want someone to give me
the implementation of:

String convertPdbNameToIupacName(String pdbAtomName) { ... }


The problem I am trying to solve is this: The RasMol/Chime expression
language is very specific to .pdb files. Jmol now does a pretty good job
of supporting .cif files. But the expression language does not work
because of the */' confusion. Therefore (in the best of all possible
worlds) I would like to have the Jmol internal representation be the IUPAC
standard. Then, I would convert the expression language into IUPAC and we
could do queries regardless of the source of the file.
