I know what Craig is talking about - I noticed this myself. I understood that the change in canonical numbering was introduced to overcome canonicalisation problems (just a few weeks ago actually). The question is, can we have the best of both worlds - correct canonicalisation and nice SMILES? To be honest, I'm happy with correct canonicalisation but I guess there's no harm having both if we can. - Noel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Beautiful is writing same markup.
