Modern library for chemistry file reading and writing
Chemfiles is a modern and high-quality library for reading and writing trajectory files created by computational chemistry simulations program. These trajectories contains atomic positions, velocities, names, topology and sometimes more.
Running simulations produce enormous amounts of data, which has to be post-processed to extract physical information about the simulated system. Chemfiles provides an interface to access this information which is

...It also calculates volume probability distributions according to a space filling volumetric model. Written in C++ and Qt, SIMtoEXP has a very simple and easy to use GUI with interactive plotting. The software was originally developed by Norbert Kucerka.
The code has been tested on OpenSUSE and Ubuntu (both binary and compilation); Windows and Mac are not officially supported, see the 'Notes' in the tar.
