I've been putting together a molecular CAD program using STk. If this is of
interest to anybody, it's available at ftp.std.com:/pub/wware/cad.scm. I think
the user interface should be fairly self-explanatory.

It doesn't yet do any "science", i.e. it doesn't yet bother to compute the
interatomic forces (I have some formulas for doing this but I'm working on the
GUI first). The thinking/motivation behind the project is explained at
http://world.std.com/~wware/ncad.html.

I'd like to end up eventually with something fairly portable, including to
the DOS/Windows and hopefully the Mac worlds. I don't think this is possible
with STk. Any suggestions for not-too-painful migration paths? Thanks.
