The original RasMol manual was created by Roger Sayle.  In July 1996,
Dr. Margaret Wong of the Chemistry Department, Swinburne University
of Technology, Australia, made extensive revisions to the RasMol 2.5
manual to accurately reflect the operation of RasMol 2.6.  Eric Martz
of the University of Massachusetts made further revisions.  In May
1997, William McClure of Carnegie Mellon University reorganized the
HTML version of the manual into multiple sections which could be
downloaded quickly and added use of frames.   Portions of the 2.7.1
version of the RasMol manual were derived with  permission from
William McClure's version using Roger Sayle's rasmol.doc for
version 2.6.4 as the primary source. Changes were made in
August 2000 for RasMol version 2.7.2, January 2001 for RasMol
version 2.7.1.1 and April 2001 for RasMol version 2.7.2.1 and
February 2005 for RasMol version 2.7.3.

de Bioqu&iacute;mica y Biolog&iacute;a Molecular. Universidad de Granada.
Espa&ntilde;a (<A HREF="mailto:jmfernan@ugr.es">jmfernan@ugr.es</A>)) a 
<a href="doc/esrasmol27.html">translation of the
Manual for Rasmol version 2.7.1 into Spanish</a> is now available.
La traducci&oacute;n espa&ntilde;ola del manual de la
versi&oacute;n de la Dra. Wong revisada por Eric Martz fue realizada por
Isabel Serv&aacute;n Mart&iacute;nez y Jos&eacute; Miguel Fern&aacute;ndez

<P>
Thanks to translations by Fernando Gabriel Ranea <davinci@dinamica.com.ar> in late 2000
and early 2001, RasMol is now
capable of rendering most menu items and messages in Spanish.  
Jean-Pierre Demailly <Jean-Pierre.Demailly@ujf-grenoble.fr> provided French
translations of menus and messages in January 2001.  
Giuseppe Martini <martini@iigb.na.cnr.it> and Giovanni Paolella <paolella@dbbm.unina.it>
with contributions by A. Davassi, M. Masullo and C. Liotto provided Italian
translations of menus and messages in March 2001.

<h4>Combining RasMol Variants</h4>
<P>
The first steps in combining RasMol variants have been performed.
Much of the work of upgrading the documentation has been done.  It
remains to make the changes to prepdoc to generate the RasFrames
version.

Several source mod packages are being reviewed for inclusion.
  Features
from other variants of RasMol will be considered for inclusion in RasMol
2.7.n if the features are particularly popular and if available resources
(or helpful colleagues) make inclusion of those features feasible.  When we
are done, probably in the early fall, the resulting best version should be
a reasonably stable and reliable single version combining most of the
features of the major current variants of RasMol.

<P>
<h4>Some other important things still to be done</H4>
<UL>
<LI>Add code to read mmCIF templates

<LI>Add code for VRML ribbons

<LI>Add code for CBFlib map write/read

<LI>Add P. Zhivkov's blurring to simulate surfaces.

<LI>Add OpenGL management of images.

<LI>Make native Mac OS X version.

<LI>Add smooth double buffering to switch molecules for movies.

<LI>Fix problems with very large zoom scale.

<LI>Add GUI toolbar interface.

<LI>Resolve color management issues (including auto-sensing bit depth).

<LI>Fix printing under windows.

<LI>Allow for longer names.

<LI>CIF and mmCIF write logic.

<LI>The read logic for large NMR structures on a Mac needs to be made to work.

<LI>The field widths for alternate conformer ID's and chains need to be
extended to allow for the more flexible naming in mmCIF.

<LI>Resolve problem with interaction of stereo and shadows.

<LI>Allow writing of GIFs from high colour-resolution mode.

<LI>Improve memory management on Macs to allow larger structures.

<LI>Upgrade to full UTF-8 support.

<LI>Integrate symmetry code into production release.
