The pharmacophore matching was described in a CDK News issue - but all the
links I have seem to be dead. It's very simplistic in fact - pharmacophore
query atoms and bonds are defined as subclasses of SMARTS atoms and bonds.
The query is parsed into a pharmacophore molecule and then a match is
identified via subgraph isomorphism. Currently only distance and angle
constraints are supported. The code really should be extended to support
dihedrals and excluded volumes

Regarding the details of the definition file - are you referring to the
definition in this particular case? Or just, generally how to define  a
pharmacophore? If the former, it's probably best to get in touch with John
Van Drie directly.

Egon/Chris - do we have old versions of CDK News somewhere?
