MIND: Output Atom Site Data for MindTool

MIND produces a file containing atomic coordinate data suitable for input to the molecular graphics program MindTool (Blake and Tirado-Rives). The supplied version of MIND will automatically run MindTool on a Sun workstation using SunView.

Application

The coordinates of atom sites on the archive files are output to the line file adm. There are two mode options. Entering mole on the MIND line will cause a connected set of atom sites for a single molecule to output (this is the default). Entering cell will cause all atom sites belonging to connected molecules in a single cell to be output to adm. If MIND has been installed on a Sun workstation using SunView, the program MindTool will be executed if it is available. This program may be obtained gratis from James F. Blake and Julian Tirado-Rives, Laboratory of Computational Chemistry, Yale University. Their contact email address is jim@doctor.chem.yale.edu.
