Vibrations.

I don't directly see a problem... maybe we do need some marker so that Jmol knowns when a multimodel is a set of models, or an animation... the latter one can interpolate, but the former not... > Chime has some support for animations ... it has a play command ... and I > assume that it will play .xyz files. > > Q: How does Chime address the issue of multiple 'frames' in a .xyz file? > > Q: Does Chime have extensions to the scripting language to allow > manipulation of particular frames? Have a browse at: http://www.cmbi.kun.nl/wetche/organic/subjmenu.html There Chime is used for animations...
