DebiChem 2D structure editors

This metapackage will install 2D structure editors which might be useful for chemists.

The list to the right includes various software projects which are of some interest to the DebiChem Project. Currently, only a few of them are available as Debian packages. It is our goal, however, to include all software in DebiChem which can sensibly add to a high quality Debian Pure Blend.

For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:

If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for DebiChem to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to send a description of that project to the DebiChem mailing list

BKchem je svobodný chemický kreslicí program napsaný v Pythonu.

Mezi jeho vlastnosti patří:

 * Kreslení (postupné spojování; šablony běžných kruhů; rozšiřování běžných
   skupin; kreslení radikálů, nábojů, šipek; podpora barev ...)
 * Úpravy (neomezený počet kroků zpět/opakovat; zarovnávání; změna měřítka;
   rotace (2D, 3D) ...)
 * Export/import (kompletní podpora exportu do SVG, OpenOffice.org-Draw, EPS;
   základní podpora importu a exportu CML1 a CML2)

Chemtool is a GTK+ based 2D chemical structure editor for X11. It supports many bond styles, most forms of text needed for chemical typesetting and splines/arcs/curved arrows.

Drawings can be exported to MOL and PDB format, SVG or XFig format for further annotation, as a PiCTeX drawing, as a bitmap or as Postscript files (several of these through XFig's companion program transfig).

The package also contains a helper program, cht, to calculate sum formula and (exact) molecular weight from a chemtool drawing file. Cht can either be called directly by Chemtool or on the console.

EasyChem je program, který vám pomůže s vytvářením vysoce kvalitních diagramů molekul a chemických vzorců (2D), které je možno exportovat do formátu PDF, PS, LaTeX a fig.

EasyChem byl původně vytvořen pro vytváření diagramů do chemických knih a nyní se často používá pro komerční i nekomerční účely vytváření těchto publikací.

Osra - wnpp
optical structure recognition application
License: free
Debian package not available
Svn
Version: 1.3.9-1

OSRA (Optical Structure Recognition Application) is a utility designed to convert graphical representations of chemical structures, as they appear in journal articles, patent documents, textbooks, trade magazines etc., into SMILES (Simplified Molecular Input Line Entry Specification) or SD files - computer recognizable molecular structure formats. OSRA can read a document in any of the over 90 graphical formats parseable by ImageMagick - including GIF, JPEG, PNG, TIFF, PDF, PS etc., and generate the SMILES or SDF representation of the molecular structure images encountered within that document.
