Mol2Mol can convert to/from a variety of Z-matrix formats. There are several
predefined formats, moreover, as it supports the use of user defined
input/output format strings, virtually any kind of Z-matrix or Cartesion
formats can be converted.

For example a Fenske-Hall type Z-matrix may look like this:

----------------------
some data
some data
1 C    0    0.000   0    0.000    0    0.000
2 C    1    1.413   0    0.000    0    0.000
3 C    2    1.400   1  118.931    0    0.000
4 C    3    1.406   2  121.024    1   -1.000
5 C    3    1.101   2  119.066    1  177.200
.....
------------------------

The corresponding input format string in Mol2Mol is
2 d e u k v l w m

which means: skip the first two lines, then the columns contain: dummy data,
element symbol, 1st defining atom, distance, 2nd def. atom, angle, 3rd def
atom, dihedral. Any combinations are allowed. When writing a Z-matrix, a
similar format string (resembling to C format strings)  can be defined to
produce any kind of Z-matrices. Look at:
