JMol

Jmol is a free, open source molecule viewer for students, educators, and researchers in chemistry, biochemistry, physics, and materials science. It is cross-platform, running on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux/Unix systems. The JSmol JmolApplet is a web browser JavaScript application that can be integrated easily into web pages. Though Java-based for development and management, JSmol is completely JavaScript. The Jmol application is a stand-alone Java application (Jmol.jar) that runs on the desktop. It has all the capabilities of the JSmol applet but runs approximately 3-6 times faster. In addition, it can be run in "headless" mode (JmolData.jar) in order to carry out tasks that need to be replicated. Jmol.jar can be integrated into any other Java program, providing file loading, structure processing, viewing, and output capabilities. Jmol is fully scriptable. For the most up-to-date scripting documentation see the Jmol/JSmol interactive scripting documentation.
