Command: SCATTER

scatter <coordinate file name> <ncs file name>

The scatter command will take the prototype for a crystal structure and expand it by the noncrystallographic transformations to generate the full asymmetric unit of the crystal. Both a coordinate file containing the prototype and another file containing the transformations are required. The ncs transformation file was probably written by the gather command.

The file written by the scatter command is named scattered.cor.
