Abstract
The Molecular Surface Package is a reimplementation, in C, of a set of earlier FORTRAN programs for computing analytical molecular surfaces, areas, volumes, polyhedral molecular surfaces, and surface curvatures . The software does not do interactive molecular graphics, but it will produce pixel maps of smooth molecular surfaces. The polyhedral molec ular surfaces are suited to display on graphics systems with real-time rendering of polyhedra.
