announcing mdxvu MD analysis code



Dear Molecular Modellers
 The mdxvu program (pronounded MDX view) is a molecular dynamics and molecular
 structure analysis code. The program was initially developed as a lightweight
 tool for visualising and analysing MD trajectories produced by the AMBER suite
 of programs. Trajectories produced by the TINKER suite can now also be analysed
 after file conversion. A file filter for handling the output of the DISCOVER
 dynamics program is in development.
 The binaries, a brief manual and example files for mdxvu are now available from
 the site
      http://www.nibsc.ac.uk/mdxvu/
 The mdxvu program uses the X11/Xlib library for graphics. It was developed and
 tested on Silicon Graphics and Intel/Linux systems. The SGI executable should
 run on R4000 or higher CPUs under Irix 6.5 or later. The Linux version was built
 on a PIII system using Red Hat linux 6.1, this version has also been found to
 work on a SuSE Linux 6.3 installation.
 See the manual.htm file for a more detailed description of the program features,
 legalese etc.
 Please forgive any duplicate posting.
