NAME
     Open Babel - a converter for molecular modeling data files

SYNOPSIS
     babel [-i<input-type>] <infile> [-o<output-type>] <outfile>

DESCRIPTION
     Open  Babel  is a program designed to interconvert a number of file formats
     currently used in molecular modeling software.

OPTIONS
     If only input and ouput files are given, Open Babel  will	guess  the  file
     type from the filename extension.

     -c     Center molecule

     -d     Delete hydrogens

     -f <number>
	    Start importing at molecule number specified

     -h     Add hydrogens

     -hpH   Add hydrogens appropriate for pH

     -i     Specifies input format, see below for the available formats

     -l <number>
	    End importing at molecule number specified

     -o     Specifies output format, see below for the available formats
