Re: [Jmol-users] mmView - a tool for mmCIF exploration

[Daniel S. <dan...@vs...>]

Dear Bob,

thanks for your complimment! I can't edit Jmol's wiki, as Wiki does
not send me a message to confirm my e-mail address (I was waiting for
e-mail the whole day, that's why my response is delayed), and if my
address is not authenticated I don't have permissions to change any
wiki page. I didn't find any contact where I could report this
problem.

Regarding crystal contacts, mmView is primarily aimed as web-based
viewer of the mmCIF format. All data shown in the application are
taken from the mmCIF file (with the only exception of paper abstracts
that are downloaded of the Pubmed). mmCIF does not store any
information about crystal contacts, these would have to be calculated.
Implementation of the functionality going beyond simple display of the
mmCIF data is not on our todo list, however, we may add some
analytical tools in the future. And thus we welcome any suggestions
from the community.

Daniel
