Kfile_chemical comprises a collection of kfile plugins suitable for managing chemistry documents.
kfile_chemical is a comprehensive set of kfile plugins designed specifically for working with chemistry documents. With support for a wide range of file formats, including XYZ, PDB, MDL mol/sd, Mol2, CML, ShelX, SMILES, and CIF files, kfile_chemical provides users with a powerful tool for managing chemical data.
Currently in alpha stage, version 1.0 of kfile_chemical will offer feature-complete plugins for all the files listed on the official chemical mime page (and a few more). Version 2.0 will be in beta and will include a more organized set of extracted pieces of information. Version 3.0 will also be in beta and will introduce mime magic, a method for detecting the mime type from content rather than from the file extension.
The first stable release, version 4.0, is expected to be ready for Kubuntu 6.04 and KDE 4.0. In this latest release, users can look forward to support for chemical-mime-data, ensuring that kfile_chemical is in sync with the main MIME type library for chemical data. Other improvements include fixes for QChar/QString conversion, the FSF address, and the contact email address.
Overall, kfile_chemical is an essential tool for anyone working with chemistry documents, offering powerful features and support for a wide range of file formats. With its upcoming stable release and plans for future improvements, kfile_chemical is set to remain an indispensable asset for chemists and researchers around the world.
