I'm posting this for a friend who doesn't have direct access to the Net : At the Dept. of Chemistry here in Uppsala we have an Apollo DN4000 for graphical studies of molecules and crystals in three dimensions with colors and shading. We have written small programs using the subroutine package GMR-3D to display three-dimensional objects such as atoms (spheres), bonds (cylinders), etc. These programs of ours are of course just simple examples of what can be done with this powerful machine. We would like to know if anyone else has written, or otherwise knows of, graphics software for the display of molecules, atoms and crystals on an Apollo system. We are e.g. thinking of such applications as the display of molecular dynamics results, crystallographic unit cells, etc. Please answer this either here in news or send a mail to M. Lundqvist, Systems Supervisor at the Dept. of Chemistry, Uppsala University, Sweden. Email address: SYSMANS@KEMIST.UU.SE.
