First, I need to thank you in particular.  First, while testing your molecules, I discovered a
case in the as yet unreleased topolbuild 1.3 in which my dihedral selection method failed
to select the dihedral choice with the maximum number of heavy atoms with OPLS-AA as
the force field. Second, also because of this, I discovered what one downloads as a "Sybyl
2" structure from one source of small molecule structures and how to edit it so that it meets
the syntax standards for a true mol2 file. Thank you very much for this assistance.

In the earlier message, I stated that topolbuild 1.2.1 ( and 1.2.2) generates topologies for
amber, gaff, glycam, 43a1, 43a2, 43b1, 45a3, 53a5, and
53a6.  I stated that the as yet
unreleased topolbuild 1.3 will include OPLS-AA. The version of topolbuild you have,
is 1.2.2. Would you like to beta test topolbuild 1.3?


Sincerely,
