[Chimera-users] standalone programs for processing volume data

[Elaine Meng]

Dear Michele,
You can now subtract maps using the command "vop":
<http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/current/docs/UsersGuide/midas/vop.html>

Be aware that this subtraction requires the grids of the two maps to  
be the same (same numbers of points and in the same locations), so you  
might need to use the "vop" resample option first, if that is not  
already true.

I believe the "vop" resampling and subtraction options have been  
available for a while, since version 1.2540 (Jul 2008).

We have been planning to remove the standalone processing programs as  
the same features become available elsewhere in Chimera, and perhaps  
they are currently broken.

I hope this helps,
Elaine
