Description
xdrawchem is a program that attempts to duplicate the functionality of ChemDraw, a molecule structure
drawing application. It operates in much the same fashion, and should be highly familiar to users of
ChemDraw.
The currently packaged version is a fork of the original package; it is maintained by Yaman Qalieh
<https://gitlab.com/yamanq>, see the copyright file.
xdrawchem has file compatibility with Chemdraw and MDL files. It can also create images in popular
formats like PNG and EPS.
