✨ GCHEMPAINT(1) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the gchempaint manual page — it's section 1 of the gnome-chemistry-utils docs, and we're about to make 2D chemistry make sense 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

gchempaint — a 2D chemical structures editor for the GNOME2 desktop 🧪✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

gchempaint [OPTIONS...] [FILE...]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so gchempaint is a 2D chemical structures editor for the GNOME2 desktop, and it's literally giving main character energy. it's a multi document application, which means you can have a whole lil squad of files open at once 🫶

you can read different file types with gchempaint. like, for example:

  • chemical/x-cml
  • chemical/x-mdl-molfile
  • chemical/x-mdl-sdfile
  • chemical/x-pdb
⚠️ but be aware, bestie — you will maybe loose 3D-data from these file-formats. not a vibe. just so you know 💀

✨ OPTIONS ✨

currently the following options are supported:

  • -e, --edit-residue — open the residues dialog. periodt 💅
  • -F, --full-screen — open new windows full screen. iconic. no distractions 🔥
  • -M, --maximize — open new window maximized. big window energy 👑
  • -?, --help — show application help options. the classic 🎀
  • --help-all, --help-* — print all or just a group of help options. these options are not documented here, so instead go peek at gtk-options(7) and gnome-options(7) — iykyk 📖
  • -v, --version — print gchempaint version information. slay ⭐
