Hi all!

I have a problem with some simple mol-files that describes metal salts, i.e. 
Na+OH- and K+OH-. When converting to smiles with the command babel test.mol 
-osmi I get the result [NaH+].[OH-] instead of the expected [Na+].[OH-] which 
is what I get from ChemDraw and seems most intuitive to me. The same problem 
occurs in obprop which returns a molecular weight of 41.005 instead of 39.997.

To me, this would be a bug, but if it's somehow intended I'm wondering if 
there's a setting somewhere to change the properties of Na, K, and such to stop 
this from happening.

I have attached the file test.mol for testing. I have tested myself on Open 
Babel 2.2.2b4 on OSX10.6.2 and Open Babel 2.2.2 on Ubuntu Hardy LTS.

Kind regards,
Fredrik
