From chemistry-request@ccl.net Tue Mar 17 01:00:57 1992 Date: Mon, 16 Mar 92 22:40:43 CST From: Jan Jensen Subject: PostScript Previewers To: chemistry@ccl.net Organization: North Dakota Higher Education Computer Network Status: R Fellow Netters, Quite a few people responded to my mail about previewing PostScript file, some with suggestions other wanting to know what I'd found out. I which to thank all that replied and here is a summary of the replies: JGANO@UOFT02 and Dale Southard both suggested T-script, a PostScript previewer available for $55 at most shareware MacProgram outlets. Randal Ketchem suggested using Mathematica Dave Winkler kindly provided the program Print2Pict which serves in place of a printer and produces PICT files instead of hardcopies. It is used in conjunction with SendPS. (I did not get this to work though. I think because we have an old version of SendPS). Steve Sidner suggested Aldus Superpaint 3.0. Roger Marks (via Javier Madrego) suggested using Freedom of Press Light - a PostScript previewer. Jan H.

We have connected an IBM PC compatible 486 to a SUN4 by adding an ETHERNET card to the PC and by using NFS software - we can login into the SUN from the PC, do FTP and text editting - does anyone know what exactly do we have to add in order to make the PC also a graphic terminal for the SUN4, i.e., do OPENWINDOWS etc, thanks.

I have recently received several requests from undergraduate students for a major in computational biology. We do not have such a program here at the University at Albany, but I was wondering if other institutions have any programs in computational or mathematical biology for undergraduates. What are the requirements for such a program? Are there such programs for graduate students? Any information would be appreciated.

To: chemistry@ccl.net Status: R I am looking for a well tested set of Platinum II parameters, and chloride parameters for use with AMBER. I am aware there are severe limitations in using MD on metal complexes, however I would like them for comparison with experimental and AM1 calculations. -- Ken Butenhof Department of Pediatrics Case Western Reserve University Cleveland, Ohio 44106
