But it should include the SMILESFormat, not? Each format may be instance of IChemFormat. If it is, it has getReaderClassName() which returns a String if there is a reader, and a null, if there is no reader. > I note that access to these formats from scripting languages could > have been greatly simplified if for each format a unique preferred > extension were specified (since the API is now stable, can I suggest > an additional getFormatID() or so). public String getPreferredNameExtension() ? > P.S.
