Hi Fred
Well, it is ironic that after acquiring ability to determine
a protein structure some times in a few minutes
we are still failed my format conversions like 30 years ago.... :-(

For one example it crashed, for others it doesn't colour the bonds properly if "Bonds (Colour by Atom)" is chosen but shows all bonds in one colour. Is that a known feature? If I save these coordinates in pdb-format and try to read it back, I get an ERROR saying: "Wrong ASCII format of an integer".
