This web page shows some of the new features of Crystals for Windows. I am particularly grateful to Lachlan Cranswick for constantly nagging for changes, and Ibrahim Tahir and Thierry Maris for being guinea-pigs for very early versions of the program.
Users can see a representation of their current model structure at all times.
All of the old crystals commands are available through the command line in the main window. An updated version of Cameron was required to bring it onto the Windows platform. The layout, default values and behaviour of all dialog boxes is controlled by scripts so that they may be adjusted to suit local languages and preferences. For most structure solution and refinements, it will guide the user to a publishable structure within a short time. The new script makes use of the extra options that can be presented to you using a graphical interface.
