I am not sure what Anthony thinks ... but I am quite convinced (on principle) that we should use the x-convention as Anthony has recommended. > Does it make any difference, since Jmol doesn't use > RxRyRz for anything right now and wouldn't except for > informing the user of a simple set of rotations that will > generate one specific structure? In the abstract, it doesn't really make any difference. But given that people have worked on this problem and have (generally) agreed that this is the 'standard' way to represent these rotations, then I agree that we should follow it. > Probably when output, these > would be rounded to the nearest integer anyway. > (Though I don't have Miguel's thoughts on that.)
