Re: open source cif parsers?

Dear Brian,

  There is a CIF parser built into RasMol that is based
on CBFlib and which is covered by open source licenses.
As of RasMol 2.7.3 the license is GPL.

  You should also see CBFlib at

  http://www.bernstein-plus-sons.com/software/CBF

and you should check with CCP4 on what the status
is of their licensing.  The last I heard it was
still up in the air.

  Regards,
   Herbert
