I know that assigning R and S to 3D molecules is too complex a task for Jmol 
but I wondered what programs are available for doing this. The .mol file format 
has the ability to describe both 3D coordinates as well as bonding so is there 
a program that can read a structure in that format and assign the stereocenters?

Platon will do some but it isn't a general solution since the bonding isn't 
explicit and the assignment rules are not fully implemented (IOW it makes 
mistakes).

I have the luxury of having access to non-commercial proprietary software to do 
this but is there something more generally available, either free or not too 
costly, I could recommend to others?
