Jmol users,
An idea is being considered to have a very light-weight "starter" model for
small molecules in the JSmol suite that is not derived from Jmol but is
instead from some other package. Kind of like what we were doing with
ChemDoodle, but not having the licensing issues that come with that.
Java-based classes would not be involved until some later option was chosen
by the page visitor.
Suggestions? What's around now that is light-weight and doesn't require
anything special (no WebGL)?
This can be VERY simple. Just balls and sticks, for example. 100-200K max.
Maybe just a couple of file formats, like MOL and XYZ.
Another possibility would be to slice off the absolute minimum of Jmol to
just handle balls and sticks. I wonder how many bytes that would require...
