abstract

XMol allows researchers to view (on any X11 display server) 3D
molecular models produced by other software packages, and to print
Encapsulated PostScript copies of molecular displays. Molecular models
can be translated and rotated in a variety of ways. Animations of
multi-step datafiles are possible, as are the calculations of atom-to-atom
distances, bond angles, and torsion angles. Modest editing features are
also supported, allowing the user to change the type and charge of
individual atoms.
