There is a preliminary release of a CIF version of RasMol, based on Roger Sayle's version 2.6, at: http://www.bernstein-plus-sons.com/software/rasmol/ Precompiled versions for SGI, Windows and Macintosh are available via links on http://www.bernstein-plus-sons.com/software/rasmol/INSTALL.html Complete source and documentation with an updated manual and reference card are available via these web pages. Distribution of additional precompiled binaries would depend on arrangements for access to appropriate systems. If you use the switch "-cif", this version will read a core CIF or mmCIF dataset. Coloring of alternate conformers and multiple NMR models is supported. Fractional coordinates are supported.
