Emma,

I'm planning on using R as well.....  If you've already got some code that
could get me started I would happily kick the tires. The main thing I am
concerned about for SMILES is unintentionally altering the structure of the
compound but for simple R groups. Most of the time this shouldn't be mucah
of an issue and you've already part of the way there if you've been
generating and vetting compounds with your code.

​Thank You,
zach cp​
