There was indeed a problem with the Windows 3.1 version of Chime released on our web site last week. This version had a bug (caused by a compiler optimization (thanks microsoft!)) which caused 'smearing' of the top part of the molecule display. We have released a new version of the Windows 3.1 Chime which fixes this problem. As a bonus the spelling errors in the menus, introduced a month or so ago, have also been fixed. This new windows 3.1 version of chime can be downloaded from our web page: http://www.mdli.com/chemscape/chime/download.html Currently only the non-installer version is available. This archive is only a little over 200k, but it does require some "user intervention" to install. Details are available on the download page listed above. We hope to have the (larger) automatic installation versions Chime available within a week. This version of Chime does not expire until 1997. We will have released the final 1.0 version of Chime long before then. The final 1.0 version of Chime will continue to have a free license for academic and personal home use. I apologize to those of you that downloaded the previous version only to discover the smearing bug! -tim Tim Maffett tim@mdli.com Principal Architect, Internet Technologies MDL Information Systems, Inc. ----- chemweb: A list for Chemical Applications of the Internet.
