Then mmCIF is perfect for you. Just create one loop like I showed, along with those two necessary header lines. Done. On Fri, Jan 30, 2015 at 8:04 AM, Rolf Huehne wrote: > On 01/29/2015 10:21 PM, Robert Hanson wrote: > > My point was that you can easily create a CIF with Perl or anything else >

My point was that you can easily create a CIF with Perl or anything else that Jmol will parse *for the information in the ATOM/HETATM/CONECT lines*, which is what it sounded like you were saying. You did not refer to specific REMARK records. Some of those are more involved. Basically you just add

I still don't understand your point, Rolf. mmCIF provides a very simple format -- about as simple as XYZ format, as you can see there in what I sent. You can design it just about any way you like; it's extremely easy to parse with a program and easy to read as a human. Why the griping? XML requires

Hi all, I am looking for a replacement for the PDB format that offers the same options like predefined atom numbers, atom names, residue names etc. after loading into Jmol. But without the restrictions of the PDB format regarding atom count and residue number count. Q: Is there anything other
