The data will then be displayed in the text in the command window c:sel TXLine0 c:kill sel c:sel F1 C7 N6 C5 c:sel p:Then there is the Refine and save esd info which needs to be clicked once in order to use the rest of the functions in the list as this will refine the model and calculate the needed esd information. c:delins more c:addins more -3 c:refine p:The next function, Distance and Angles with esd(of selection) will allow you to view the current esd information of up to 4 atoms, select 4 atoms in the structure. c:sel N12 C12 C9 C8 c:refresh p:Then select the link or enter in the command esd c:esd c:refresh p:This will then cause the data to appear in the command window in the software. p:The next function to be looked at is Analyse π-π Interactions to use this function simply click on the link without highlighting anything c:pipi -g c:rota x 90 c:refresh p:This should have duplicated the molecules to show ring interaction and given some data in the command window c:fuse c:refresh p:Another command you could also use would be the htab command p:If the command htab is entered into the command line then this will add in found hydrogen bonds to the list for the refinement programme to add to the CIF file. p:The next command would not work on the currently loaded molecule so the model for Sucrose will be loaded in order to show an example of the command working. c:reap 'DataDir()/samples/Sucrose/Sucrose.res' p:You can also cause the molecules to grow and show hydrogen bond interactions between molecules by typing in the command htab -g c:htab -g c:refresh p:There is also another htab command that can be used which is htab -t which will allow you to attach unconventional hydrogen bonds to atoms for example if the command was htab -t=Br,I this would cause the Br to gain a bond with I p:End of tutorial, click on the next button to replay the tutorial or the cancel button to exit.
