Hi,

I’m working on an update to iBabel, and was hoping to clear out the tools tab 
particularly as I’m not sure if some are now supported with OpenBabel 3.0

Looking through the directory of openbabel tools that are installed we have 

obconformer  equiv to  obabel --conformer
obdistgen  (generate rough 3D coordinates) now use obabel --gen3D
obenergy  equiv to obabel  --energy
obfit equiv to --obabel --align
obfitall not sure what this is?
obgen   equiv to obabel --gen3D (fastest --ff MMFF94s)
obgrep equiv to obabel structure searching
obminimize  equiv to obabel --minimize (--ff MMFF94s --steps 1000 --sd)
obmm apparently this is a this is a 'full featured' MM program but may not be 
generally useful
obprobe (create electrostatic probe grid)
obprop (print standard molecular properties), would be more useful if we could 
get individual properties,    e.g. obabel —props <options>  (MW LogP TPSA HBA  
HBD RBC)
obrms (Calculate the heavy-atom RMSD between two chemically identical 
structures) perhaps this should be an obabel option?
obrotamer (generate conformer/rotamer coordinates, not minimized) better to use 
—conformer?
obrotate  (batch-rotate dihedral angles matching SMARTS patterns)
obspectrophore (calculate spectrophore)
obsym (detect 3D point group symmetry, only cif files?) sounds like it is to 
deprecated
obtautomer (enumerate tautomer SMILES and canonical tautomer SMILES)
obthermo (extract the thermochemistry for a molecule, what file format is 
needed?) 

Any insights very welcome,

Cheers,

Chris
