Molecular simulation analysis and manipulation
Wordom is a (simple) command line utility conceived to spare the user some time in manipulating and converting dcd, xtc, pdb, crd and xyz files. Wordom is also a versatile program for a broad range of molecular structure and dynamics analysis. As a plus, it's easy to use in shell scripts. Due to its simplicity, it is very easy and straightforward to add your own analysis module. Basically, most of what you have to do is write the algorithm - the data are made available by the existing wordom i/o modules.
The Wordom project was conceived and started in the Caflisch Lab at the University of Zurich (CH), Biochemistry dept., and is now maintained and developed mainly in the Fanelli Lab at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia (IT), Department of Life Sciences, with contributors from other universities (see developers)
