  Wow!  That is a *lot* of changes.  When I ported MOPAC-93 to SGI/IRIX
  and MIPS/RISCos, the only change necessary was to have the compiler make
  all data static by default.  All the test cases ran just fine.  For the DOS 
  port I did right afterwards, the only change was to rearrange 'SAVE' and 
  'DIMENSION' statements that were in direct violation of the f77 standard.
  This affected a handful of files only.  (The hard part was writing all
  those .BAT files for automated compilation and runtime execution! {-8)

  ...just an FYI.  Sounds like HP/Apollo *still* need to work on their f77...?

Cheers

I'm interested in learning about work done to model drug binding sites
in biological systems. I remember hearing about a computer program
which designs potential drugs given a binding site, but I can't
remember anything else about it. Can anyone give me a reference for a
good review article in this field. I'll summarize if there's interest.

						Rick

P.S. Thanks for all of the responses to my question on quasiparticle
force fields for proteins. If anyone still needs a summary of
responses let me know.

hello netters:  can someone tell me where is the FTP  sites  for the ORTEP 
program (MAC version) ? I tried one site in JAPAN, but it is empty...

thank you very much!

Well, you might want to take a look at the following monograph, which in
my opinion is one of the best books for what you are looking for (it is
a bit old!)

The GROW program by Joe Moon of Upjohns generates amino acid chains
that bind as tightly as possible to specified binding sites.
A few papers on GROW have been published. The code is not available.
I have been working on pieces of a parallel version of the algorithm.
I can look up the references - when I'm back in my office - if that is
of interest.

Subject: cndo/2 with geometry optimization


Dear netters:
	Does anybody know where I can get a CNDO/2 with geometry optimization?
Yes, I know Gaussian, Mopac etc. have such part. But they are too big.  I just
want a program including CNDO SCF & UHF plus geometry optimization.
	Thanks a lot in advance!
				Best wishes

Gu:

I don't know about a CNDO/2 with geometry optimization, but M. A. Whitehead
and Russell Boyd had geometry optimization in their implementation of
the CNDO formalism.  That was back about 1972, give or take.  M. A. Whitehead
is still, I believe, at McGill University.
