We are using parts of OpenBabel to read 3D molecular structure files (e.g. MOL, 
CML, PBD, etc) to input into molecular orbital calculations and to display the 
structures. 

An issue is that for some molecules, the translation process introduces 
improper aromatic (delocalized) bonds (e.g. Bond Oder 1.5).    For our use, we 
don't need display of aromatic bonds nor for input into the MO program (which 
needs only xyz coordinates).

Is there a simple way to either "turn off" aromatic bonds or avoid them 
altogether in OpenBabel?

Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
