[Chimera-users] internal coordinates (z-matrix) in chimera

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Chinh,
For scripting measurements (distance, angle, torsion) you can use commands: distance, angle
<http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/distance.html>
<http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/midas/angle.html>

These measurements are specified individually.  Chimera does not have an option to write out a Z-matrix, sorry.

More info on writing Chimera scripts to process multiple data files:
<http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/ProgrammersGuide/basicPrimer.html>

I hope this helps,
Elaine
