[chimera-dev] IMAGIC-5 and Chimera

Dear programmers/developers of Chimera!

I am writing because many of our users display their 3D results obtained 
with our IMAGIC-5 software with your Chimera program. We would be 
interested to create a more direct coupling to Chimera which I believe 
would be to everyone's advantage.

We as the Image Science company maintain and distribute (free of charge) 
a universal data conversion program called EM2EM which most people in 
the 3DEM ("3D electron microscopy") community use to convert their 
results into various formats such as MRC/CCP4 that is compatible with 
Chimera directly.

The data format of our IMAGIC-5 software is comparable to MRC/CCP4 but 
is a bit richer because it also supports sequences of 3D volumes in a file.

Is it possible to achieve a closer integration with your Chimera 
program? And if yes, how can we proceed?

Thank you and kind regards
Michael Schatz
