Dear Luc

I think I have confused you by not mentioning in the very first mail.

My main program is in PERL and I am calling OPENBABEL by installing it on my PC and using the system command on UNIX. e.g. system("babel -i pdb input file -o cif output file");

Same thing I wanted for cctbx. Since it does alot of other things along with unitcell generation, I wanted to have the relevant part of cctbx.

I wanted to make binary of that part, so that I can call it from the main program.

Thanx alot

Just to make sure we are on the same page, I have got two questions.
Is your main program written in C?
If so, were you embedding a Perl interpreter in that program, so as to have access to OpenBabel?

Best wishes,

Luc
