Chimers of the world, There have been several questions lately about Chime animations, based on multiple XYZ files. We have been using these animations for quite a while now, in our educational (organic chemistry) web pages Molecules in four dimensions (http://www.caos.kun.nl/wetche/organic/), Mol4D. Besides ready-made animations, Mol4D features a perl script based Chime molecule editor, to edit mopac input files and produce Chime'd xyz animations on the fly. (Netscape/Windows/MacPPC preferred) We have decided to make all the scripts available to the chime-using community. At the bottom of the page mentioned above there is a link to the 'technical background', that explains which script is used for what. The scripts are to some extent site-specific, of course, but could be adapted for local use. We would like to encourage the use of these scripts, in both ways: improvements on their tasks, and developing more applications in the field of organic chemistry. We intend to maintain a repository of the results, so please inform us if you have a contribution that is useful for others. -- ***** J.H. (Hens) Borkent, CAOS/CAMM Center, *CAOS * P.O.
