OBSPECTROPHORE(1)	     User's Reference Manual	       OBSPECTROPHORE(1)

NAME
     obspectrophore -- SPECTROPHORE calculator

SYNOPSIS
     obspectrophore [OPTIONS] -i input_file

     obspectrophore [-u | -h]

DESCRIPTION
     obspectrophore  can be used to generate Spectrophores, which are one-dimen-
     sional descriptors generated from the property fields surrounding the mole-
     cules.  This technology allows the accurate  description  of  molecules  in
     terms of their surface properties or fields.  Comparison of molecules prop-
     erty  fields provides a robust structure-independent method of aligning ac-
     tives from different chemical classes.  When applied to molecules	such  as
     ligands and drugs, Spectrophores can be used as powerful molecular descrip-
     tors  in the fields of chemoinformatics, virtual screening, and QSAR model-
     ing.

OPTIONS
     -i file
	   Specifies the molecular input file from which Spectrophores are to be
	   calculated.	The filetype is automatically detected from the file ex-
	   tension.

     -n value
	   Specifies the kind of normalization that should be performed.   Valid
	   values  are (without quotes): No (default), ZeroMean, UnitStd and Ze-
	   roMeanAndUnitStd.

     -a value
	   Specifies the required accuracy expressed as  the  angular  stepsize.
	   Only the following discrete values are allowed: 1 | 2 | 5 | 10 | 15 |
	   20 (default) | 30 | 36 | 45 | 60

     -s value
	   Specifies  the  kind of cages that should be used in terms of the un-
	   derlying pointgroup: P1 or P-1.  Valid values are  (without	quotes):
	   No (default), Unique, Mirror and All.

     -r value
	   Specifies  the  required resolution expressed as a real positive num-
	   ber.  The default value is 3.0 Angstrom.  Negative values or a  value
	   equal to 0 generate an error message.

     -u    Display implementation details.

     -h    Display help message.
