Abstract

The enCIFer program permits the location, reporting and correction of syntax and format violations in single- or multi-block crystallographic information files (CIFs). The program also permits the editing of existing individual or looped data items and the addition of new data in these categories, and provides data-entry wizards for the addition of two types of standard information for small-molecule structural studies, namely publication data and chemical and physical property information. Facilities for the graphical visualization and manipulation of structure(s) in a CIF are also provided.
