AW: AW: [NTG-context] PPCHTeX Bug?
Thanks to all who answered me! Special thanks to Tobias. I will use ochem or something like that under LaTeX because I need seven-membered rings. Or is it possible to use ochem under ConTeXt? Greetings Thomas Is it possible to create seven-membered ring-systems with ppchtex? I never found something in the manual about it. Probably not. Hans, how about implementing those?

Well, it is possible by abusing the basal structures ONE and SIX. As an example for a 120 degree angle using SIX see the sample some messages before in this thread. However, you are right, there are things which are not present, such as certain bonds etc. Yours sincerely Tobias Hilbricht ___ ntg-context mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context
Re: [NTG-context] PPCHTeX Bug?
In my opinion - it's not only its complexity preventing the users from using it, but also it's insufficient flexibility. As long as I understood the manual (and tried to draw some formulas), it is possible to create a certain subset of images, which covers the most needs, but certainly not all of them (there's no way to make such a trivial thing as a thetraedral or trigonal angle - 109.5 and 120 degrees). see: http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-ppchtex/2002/02.html Even the ones with lots of experience gave up. Perhaps chemistry is too complex to be applied easily without some help of graphical tools. SMILES (http://www.daylight.com/dayhtml/smiles/ssmiles.html) could be a solution, say \startSSMILES CC(=O)O \stopSSMILES producing a nice picture of acetic acid (using metafun), but perhaps still not serving all the puposes a chemist needs. Mojca Taco Hoekwater wrote: Hi Thomas, I believe your problem is that ppchtex is a very specialistic package and there are not that many people using it to it's full capacity. As a result of that, there isn't that much expert knowledge available. Personally, I don't understand any of it. Luckily, the only chemical stuff I have ever had to typeset could be done by cutpaste and making trivial changes to the examples in the manual.

Hi to all,
One week is gone and I got no answer, no comment to my problems!
What's going wrong!

Betreff: AW: [NTG-context] PPCHTeX Bug?
Hello,
I am new here in this list and I am the one who has the problems with
ppchtex.
At first I have to thank Hraban and Tobias for their committed help!
Under LaTeX I tried the downloaded version of ppchtex.tex from
pragma-ade.nl. I got only the lines for the bonds between the atoms, no
letters for the atomic symbols. And I got the error message Tobias and
Hraban reported.
Tobias' version of ppchtex.tex works fine!
The downloaded version works fine only under ConTeXt not under LaTeX.
Is there a bug? Or am I to stupid?
Another question:
Is it possible to create seven-membered ring-systems with ppchtex? I never
found something in the manual about it.
Greetings
Thomas

Dear readers,
the code in question was the following:
--
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{etex}

was:

He uses an actual MikTeX (again, only problems with this, we should
mark it red in the wiki...) His file ppchtex.tex ends like:

\fi
\protect \endinput
Tobias Hilbricht answered, the code would work with his ppchtex.tex
version from TeX Live 2003, there line 3390 (second line from the end)
had only a lonely \fi, but the file is 3kB bigger,
With Tobias' file it worked at Thomas.
Thomas downloaded the file from pragma-ade.nl, and it doesn't work
again.
I told him to ask at the PPCHTeX list, see above.
Further Thomas wanted to draw seven-rings, and that seems not
supported by PPCHTeX.
Perhaps this helps to solve this problem with PPCHTeX.
Yours sincerely
