COORD_FORMAT (CCP4: Supported Program)

NAME

coord_format - fix PDB format and convert to/from other formats

SYNOPSIS

coord_format xyzin foo_in.xyz xyzout foo_out.xyz
[Key-worded input file]

DESCRIPTION

coord_format has two purposes:
  1. Syntax checking on input is less strict than other programs. Therefore, a corrupted PDB file can be read in, and output as a "standardised" PDB file. It is the user's responsibility to check that the program has interpreted the input correctly.
  2. The program will convert between PDB, mmCIF and MMDB binary formats. Because of the limitations of the various formats, this conversion is not exact, and again the user should check the output carefully.

INPUT AND OUTPUT FILES

XYZIN

Input coordinate file. The input format is detected automatically.

XYZOUT

Output coordinate file, in format selected by OUTPUT keyword.

KEYWORDED INPUT

OUTPUT [ PDB | CIF | BIN ]

(default is PDB)
Select output file format: PDB = standard PDB format, CIF = mmCIF format, and BIN = MMDB binary format.

END

End keyworded input.

PROGRAM OUTPUT

The program currently gives a short summary of the commands received.
