Jmol Developers,

Jmol 11.6.RC4 has some substantial refactoring. Any testing you wish to 
do would be appreciated.

All the symmetry-related aspects (space groups, point groups, unit 
cells) are now all in their own package. These methods are in a new jar 
file, JmolApplet0_Symmetry.jar. That file is 41K and only downloads if 
files are loaded or commands are invoked that need symmetry methods.

In addition, I pulled out all the isosurface business from 
org.jmol.shapespecial to create the org.jmol.shapesurface package. This 
package is only loaded if an isosurface-related command is given 
(isosurface, lcaocartoon, mo, or pmesh). A new Jar file -- 
JmolApplet0_ShapeSurface.jar -- is part of the file set now, and the 
contents of JmolApplet0_Jvxl.jar are now folded into it. Moving the 
isosurface stuff out of ShapeSpecial means that a savings of about 106K 
can be acheived when these commands are not issued.

This reduces the base download to 720K. The full download 
(JmolApplet.jar) is about 1.3Mb.
