MM parameter development



 I'm looking for some info and/or code to help automate the development of
 forcefield parameters. Given a set of x-ray or NMR structures and/or results
 from ab initio calculations are there programs that can automate the
 development of parameters for a given forcefield, ie eq bondlengths, angles,
 stretching constants etc... Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. (I'm
 getting tired of doing this by hand, there must be a better tool somewhere !)
 thanks,
