-
- AVS comes in two components, AVS Viewer, and AVC Chemistry viewer.
- The latter enables visualisation of Gaussian 92 and MOPAC files, the
- former
- reads PDB data etc.
-
- An alternative is Explorer from SGI, which certainly costs less than AVS.
- We are developing many new modules for Explorer, which we will offer
- shortly
- via the Explorer archive (cost yet undecided!).
-
- Graphically, both are stunning. From a developers view, both offer an
- excellent
- programming platform. Certainly the way to go (provided they can be
- afforded).
