Hi,

I am new to openbabel. I came to know of open babel recently and want to use it 
for
my academic work.

Here is my Query:

I want to calculate tanimoto coefficient (similarity score) of two lipid 
molecules
but could not find step-by-step procedure to do so in open babel documentation.

What I have done so far:

I converted .sdf files of two lipids into SMILES string and obtained 
fingerprints
(FP2) of SMILES string. FP2 of one of the molecules looks like this -

00000000 01000000 00000000 00000400 00080000 00000000
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000080 00000000 40010000
00000000 00800000 00000000 00080008 00000000 00000000
01402000 00000001 00000000 10000010 03000000 00000010
00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 00040000
00020000 00000000

Now, I would like to compare two such fingerprints (actually more than two) and
calculate their similarity score. Can someone advice me how to do it ?

Thanks in Advance
Chak

PS:  I am new to openbabel and Linux. Till now, I used openbabel GUI in windows.
Even though I have installed openbabel in my ubuntu, I have not used it.
