Detailed Description
     The AtomInfo class provides information about atoms.

     The information is kept in a file named atominfo.kv in the SC  library  di-
     rectory. That information can be overridden by the user.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
   sc::AtomInfo::AtomInfo (const Ref< KeyVal > &)
     The  AtomInfo KeyVal constructor is used to generate a AtomInfo object from
     the input. Default values will be read in from the atominfo.kv file in  li-
     brary  directory.	These can be overridden by specifying the keyword below.
     The library file is also read using a KeyVal constructor syntax, so consult
     that file for an example.

Member Function Documentation
   void sc::AtomInfo::save_data_state (StateOut &) [virtual]
     Save  the	base  classes (with save_data_state) and the members in the same
     order that the StateIn CTOR initializes them. This must be  implemented  by
     the derived class if the class has data.

     Reimplemented from sc::SavableState.
