CIF_CELL_CONTENTS(1)

✨ cif_cell_contents ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the cif_cell_contents manual page πŸ’– this is a General Commands Manual situation, and we're about to figure out what's actually inside your unit cell. no cap.


🌸 NAME 🌸

cif_cell_contents β€” calculate cell contents from atom coordinates and symmetry information. literally that's the whole job, and she does it gorgeously πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

cif_cell_contents --options input1.cif input*.cif

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Calculate cell contents from atom coordinates and symmetry information.

that's it, that's the vibe. you feed her CIF files, she tells you what's in the cell. iconic behavior fr fr 🫢


πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

  • -c, --continue-on-errors β€” keep processing the subsequent data blocks even if one data block had fatal processing errors. she's not gonna let one messy block ruin the whole run πŸ’ͺ
  • -c-, --die-on-errors, --no-continue-on-errors, --dont-continue-on-errors, --do-not-continue-on-errors β€” terminate the script immediately if some data block could not be processed. this is the default. dramatic? maybe. effective? absolutely πŸ’€
  • --continue-on-warnings β€” do not terminate the script if warnings are raised. this is the default ✨
  • --die-on-warnings β€” terminate the script immediately if warnings are raised. no warnings tolerated, periodt πŸ”₯
  • --continue-on-notes β€” do not terminate the script if notes are raised. this is the default 🌸
  • --die-on-notes β€” terminate the script immediately if notes are raised. even the lil notes?? yes bestie, even those πŸ‘‘
  • -Z, --cell-formula-units-Z 1 β€” specify the number of formula sum units in the unit cell. Default: taken from the input CIF if present, otherwise assumed to be 1. so if you don't say anything, she'll look in the CIF first and fall back to 1 πŸŽ€
  • --use-attached-hydrogens β€” include the number of implicit hydrogens, specified using the _atom_site_attached_hydrogens tag, into the formula sum. this is the default πŸ’–
  • --no-use-attached-hydrogens, --dont-use-attached-hydrogens, --ignore-attached-hydrogens β€” ignore the number of implicit hydrogens, specified using the _atom_site_attached_hydrogens tag, in the calculation of the formula sum. bye hydrogens, we don't know her πŸ™ˆ
  • --assume-full-occupancies β€” assume that all atoms have full (1.0) occupancies. everyone's at 100%, no half-measures πŸ’―
  • --no-assume-full-occupancies, --dont-assume-full-occupancies, --use-original-occupancies β€” use the original atom site occupancies, as given in the CIF file. this is the default 🌈
  • --print-datablock-name β€” print the data block name, tab-separated, before each formula. for when you need to know which block is which 🏷️
  • --no-print-datablock-name, --dont-print-datablock-name, --do-not-print-datablock-name β€” do not print the data block name. this is the default πŸ™…
  • --use-perl-parser β€” use the Perl parser to parse CIF files. retro vibes πŸͺ
  • --use-c-parser β€” use the C parser to parse CIF files. this is the default ⚑
  • --help, --usage β€” output a short usage message (this message) and exit. she'll give you the quick rundown then dip πŸ‘‹
  • --version β€” output version information and exit. know your era πŸ’«

and that's the whole page, babe 🌟 this was the cif_cell_contents entry from the General Commands Manual β€” mwah, go calculate some cell contents, you absolute legend πŸ‘‘πŸ’œ
