[Chimera-users] Chimera - Dock grid

[Thomas Goddard]

Hi Joel,

  I added a Chimera volume file reader for DOCK bump map (*.bmp),
contact map (*.cnt), and energy score (*.nrg) grid files.  It allows
you to open these files from the Chimera File/Open menu and use the
Volume Viewer dialog to adjust colors and threshold levels interactively.
This provides a better user interface for displaying DOCK grids.
See the User's Guide/Tools/VolumeViewer documentation for details.

  Here is the new code:

     http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/home/goddard/voldata.tar.gz

It contains a directory VolumeData that replaces one already in Chimera
version 1700.  On Linux or Windows or SGI this would replace
chimera/share/VolumeData, on Mac it replaces
Chimera.app/Contents/Resources/share/VolumeData.
You should probably rename the original VolumeData directory in case
the new one causes you trouble.  On Linux or Mac or SGI you can extract
voldata.tar.gz using unix command "gunzip -c voldata.tar.gz | tar xf -".
On Windows you can use an unzip program like WinZip.
