Summary: cif file read error

Initial Comment:
We need a quick cif fix. ICSD has fixed their CIF
problem; now Jmol needs to adapt a bit to handle an odd
situation. CIF files exist that have no coordinate
value for some atoms, even though they are listed in


loop_
_atom_site_label
_atom_site_type_symbol
_atom_site_symmetry_multiplicity
_atom_site_Wyckoff_symbol
_atom_site_fract_x
_atom_site_fract_y
_atom_site_fract_z
_atom_site_B_iso_or_equiv
_atom_site_occupancy

specifically, it is possible to have
undetermined-position atoms here. Recommend Jmol simply
skip these as though they were comments. They are being
listed as:

H1 H1+ 4 e - - - 0. 8.

(formerly there were no hyphens there, so the
whitespace parsing of course threw the reader off)

Attached is a new file Jmol needs to be able to read.

Bob Hanson

This is something I am taking up with CoreChemCif... I think the semantics are that the atom is known to be present somewhere but hasn't been determined. Certainly for the present it should be omitted from the display. But if Jmol caluclates the MWt or other properties it may need to be included.

Per our discussions on the mailing list, instead of hyphen
these should be '?' or '.'

In either case, the CifReader now deals with it and discards
cif atoms with unrecognized/invalid coordinates.


Jmol can read attached file

Good grief :-(

I suppose that ignoring these lines won�t be difficult ...
... but I wonder whether or note these files are valid .cif files ? :-/
