💖 GCHEM3D(1) 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about a little icon from the gnome-chemistry-utils family (manual section 1, iykyk). it's called gchem3d and it's literally the cutest tiny chemistry viewer you've ever met. 🧪✨

✨ NAME ✨

gchem3d — a small chemical viewer application 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

gchem3d [OPTION(S)...] [FILE...]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so gchem3d is, and I quote, a small chemical viewer application. small but mighty, fr fr. 👑

the way it just... opens up molecules and shows you several chemical file formats? it's giving versatile. it's giving main character energy. no cap. 💖

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

here's the whole roster, and yes we're going through every single one, because we don't skip. periodt.

  • -b COLOR, --bgcolor=COLOR — use the given color as the background color, bestie. 🎨 and COLOR can be one of "black" (which is the default, slay), "white", or "#rrggbb".
ok but real talk: if you go with the #rrggbb route, don't forget to escape the # character in the shell. I'm serious. the shell will absolutely eat it and leave you confused. 🙈 escape it. do it for me.
  • -d MODEL, --display3d=MODEL — this is how you choose how molecules get displayed, and honestly it's the fun one. 🫶 MODEL can be one of "BallnStick" (the default, iconic) or "SpaceFill".
  • -?, --help — shows you the application help options. your little lifeline. 🌈
  • --help-all, --help-* — prints all the help options, or just one group of them. these are not documented here, babes — for those you gotta go read gtk-options(7) and gnome-options(7) instead. go on, they're waiting. 💜
  • -v, --version — prints gchem3d version information. gotta know what you're working with. ⭐
