I would also point out that there is Java 8 on the very near horizon, http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre8-downloads-2133155.html I have been running Java 8u5 for some months now (with no particular problems on OS X, but 8u11 has just been released which I have not tested), but we should start testing both 7 AND 8 from now on. It is certainly true that as Oracle tightened the security sandbox for Java, we have had a period of significant instability (not least coping with all those sites running Java that have not replaced their unsigned Jar’s with signed ones). There are still a few functions of Jmol that simply run too slowly in JSmol for Java-Jmol to be phased out just yet (generating .jvxl surfaces from large cube files for example) but I suspect that day is going to have to come. It might be useful to us all for a list of functions such as .jvxl surface generation which simply cannot map to JSmol to be created? Has anyone got any other suggestions for operations that really require Jmol?
