PorDiBle 3.4
PorDiBle - Convert text documents to Palm .pdb files more>>
How Does It Work?
Simply drag one or more appropriate files onto PorDiBle and let it do its work. Note that the Palm OS uses a different file name than the actual name of your document. PorDiBle will query you for the name that will appear on the Palm
Double clicking on the PorDiBle application (as opposed to drag/drop) will allow you access to the preferences through the PorDiBle menu. You can specify where files are saved, if PorDiBle should quit when its finished converting, and if it should delete the original file in this window. These preferences default to the following: ask for save location, quit after processing is complete, and do not delete originals after conversion.
For text clippings youd like to convert, or text in your clipboard, there is now a "Quick Convert" window (cmd-L or in file menu). Simply paste your text or drag your text clipping into the window and then push convert.
Enhancements:
- PorDiBle now tries harder to convert non ascii characters to ascii. Its still not very smart but at least now smart quotes are converted to regular (non smart) quotes
- Pordible now prints a more intelligent error message if it cant convert from pdb->txt
Delicious 2 ListDB 0.5
Delicious 2 ListDB provides a fast and efficient solution to convert basic Delicious Library data into a Palm PDB for the free List database application. more>>
Delicious 2 ListDB 0.5 provides a fast and efficient solution to convert basic Delicious Library data into a Palm PDB for the free List database application. Currently there's no real customization possible other than hardcoding in the script, but that will be coming in future releases. Note that this is not a Palm conduit; edits on the Palm are lost when a new PDB is loaded.
VMD 1.8.7 Beta 5 / 1.8.6
A molecular visualization program for displaying, animating and analyzing large biomolecular systems using 3-D graphics. more>> A molecular visualization program for displaying, animating and analyzing large biomolecular systems using 3-D graphics.
VMD is a molecular visualization program for displaying, animating, and analyzing large biomolecular systems using 3-D graphics and built-in scripting. VMD supports computers running Mac OS X, UNIX, or Windows, is distributed free of charge, and includes source code.
VMD is a molecular graphics program designed for the interactive visualization and analysis of biopolymers such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and membranes.
VMD is a general application for displaying molecules containing any number of atoms and is similar to other molecular visualization programs in its basic capabilities.
VMD includes built-in support for high-end quad-buffered stereoscopic rendering which can be used in projection theatres as well as desktop graphics workstations.
Sterescopic display aids significantly in the perception of three dimensional structures and has been a key feature in VMD since its first release. VMD also provides support for inexpensive game-oriented stereo glasses, and even anaglyphic (Red/Blue) stereo.
Main features:
- No limit on the number of molecules, atoms, residues or number of animation frames, except available memory.
- Many molecular and volumetric rendering and coloring methods.
- Extensive atom selection language with boolean and algebraic operators, regular expressions, distance based selections, and more.
- Extensive graphical and text interfaces to Tcl, Tk, and Python to provide powerful scripting and analysis capabilities.
- High-quality on-screen rendering using OpenGL programmable shading on advanced graphics accelerators.
- Stereoscopic display with shutter glasses, autostereoscopic flat panels, anaglyph stereo glasses, and side-by-side stereo viewing.
- 3-D interactive control through the use of joysticks, Spaceballs, haptic devices and other advanced input devices, with support for Virtual Reality Peripheral Network (VRPN).
- An extensible plugin-based file loading system with support for popular formats such as AMBER, CHARMM, Gromacs, NAMD, PDB, X-PLOR, and many others, as well as automatic conversion through Babel.
- Export displayed scene to extenal rendering formats including POV-Ray, Raster3D, RenderMan, Gelato, Tachyon, Wavefront, as well as STL or VRML2 files for 3-D printing.
- Integration of multiple sequence alignment and evolutionary analysis tools, in the form of the Multiseq plugin and its related toolset.
- Perform interactive molecular dynamics (IMD) simulations using NAMD, Protomol, or other programs as simulation back-ends.
- Integration with the program NAMD, a fast, parallel, and scalable molecular dynamics program developed in conjunction with VMD. See the NAMD page for details: http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd
- Integration with the BioCoRE collaborative research environment. VMD can "publish" molecular graphics scripts to BioCoRE, so that collaborators can work together over the internet. See the BioCoRE page for details: http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/biocore.
Version restrictions:
- You have to register in order to download.
Enhancements
- User documentation updates
- Minor improvements and corrections to the VMD Users Guide, added documentation for new commands and environment variables.
- New and updated tutorials available for advanced images and movie making, 3-D PDF export, Tachyon ambient occlusion lighting, electrostatic surface coloring, and density map based atom selections.
- User interface changes
- New "User" picking mode for use with user defined scripts and plugins
- General Improvements
- Support for 3-D capture with Acrobat 3-D, for creation of documents which embed 3-D molecular structures.
- VMD renderings can now use Tachyons advanced ambient occlusion lighting for tremendously improved 3-D renderings of molecular graphics. This advanced lighting mode can greatly enhance the shading of pores and channels, structures with cavities, and other cases which typically require the use of depth cueing for better depth perception.
- VMD now supports the nVidia "Gelato" GPU-accelerated production quality rendering package. VMD exports scenes in Gelatos native PYG file format, as well as the RenderMan RIB format.
- By default VMD will now use all of the available processors to accelerate parallelized portions of the code which currently include several structure analysis routines, Interactive MD, and ray tracing.
- Overall per-atom memory use has been significantly decreased. VMD now uses just over half as much memory per atom compared with previous versions, leaving more space available for additional trajectory frames or for more molecules to be loaded at once.
- VMD structure loading and analysis scalability have been significantly improved. VMD has been successfully tested loading and analyzing structures of up to 72,000,000 atoms.
- Automatic bond determination algorithm now runs up to 3 times faster on single processor systems, and uses multiple processors for improved performance on multicore processors and multiprocessor workstations.
- Drastically improved multi-thousand-file structure loading performance when display update is disabled. This benefits batch mode VMD analysis jobs involving analysis of thousands of structures, e.g. loading and searching large subsets of the PDB.

Palm 0.0.4
Read and write Palm Pilot database files more>> Read and write Palm Pilot database files
Palm is a free and pure Ruby library for reading and writing Palm Pilot database files.
The base Palm::PDB will read and write raw PDB files. Their binary data is maintained in each record. This is probably not very useful for most cases, but will allow access to all the common metadata.
To create a more specific implementation, you should override pack_entry and unpack_entry to handle specific record types. See Palm::WabaDB for an example implementation supporting Waba format PDBs.
