Submission tools have been developed for the X-PLOR program that output PDB records compliant with the coordinate file format of the Protein Data Bank at Brookhaven. The implementation of the submission tools is accomplished by using a set of easy-to-use "macro" files. These macros will allow easy and convenient distribution of changes of the deposition format without the need for changing the underlying X-PLOR code.
