Dear Abinitioners,

I would like to share some pieces of information,
hoping that they might be interesting to not a few of you ...
(The information might be incorporated somewhere in the future ABINIT 
archive ?)

1) JSV (Java  Structure Viewer)
http://jcrystal.com/steffenweber/JAVA/JSV/jsv.html
The author's page: http://jcrystal.com/steffenweber/

I tried a function "show spherical regions  around a selected atom
(study site environment)". I am curious about this kind of function
in other GUIs for crystal modeling ... Some of you notice such GUIs ?

I have been trying to find the newer version of JSV (e.g. v.1.08,
not v.1.08lite), but I have not found it ...

2) Orbitron (once introduced on this ML, so just a reminder)
The Orbitron:
a gallery of atomic orbitals and molecular orbitals on the WWW
http://www.shef.ac.uk/chemistry/orbitron/
and the reference page therein:
http://www.shef.ac.uk/chemistry/orbitron/admin/references.html

3) Sirus
An internet search engine "for scientific information only":
http://www.scirus.com/srsapp/

About Sirus:
http://www.scirus.com/srsapp/aboutus/

An interesting news article about "Sirus":
http://www.wired.com/news/technology/0,1282,62979,00.html

I noticed that "Sirusing" sometimes works better than "Googling"
in search of scientific matters, indeed.

Best wishes,
Masayoshi
