I (jkl@ccl.net) abbreviated the announcement about availability of AMBER 4.0,
sent to me by  Bill Ross (ross@cgl.ucsf.edu). To get more information,
(e.g., interesting benchmark of AMBER on different hardware platforms) send
a single line message (all letters lowercase !):
   send amber.note from chemistry
to OSCPOST@ccl.net or OSCPOST@OHSTPY.BITNET.

>Subject: UNIX version of AMBER 4.O

>Molecular mechanics simulation programs, including source code and demos.
>Requires Fortran compiler, 25+ Mbytes disk.
>The 4.0 release has important new features: Free Energy: dynamically 
>modified windows, potential of mean force, bond correction, thermodynamic 
>integration and others. Normal modes: Langevin modes, finding transition 
>states, new analysis tools. A new NMR-oriented energy minimization/dynamics 
>program allows time-dependent and time-averaged constraints (e.g. simulated 
>annealing)  and direct fitting to NOESY or chemical shift data. The 
>'vanilla' energy minimization and dynamics program includes polarizability 
>as an option.  Distribution is in source code format, and a suite of demos 
>is provided.  Questions about licensing:

For those interested, there is an AMBER electronic forum (works like ours).
It is an e-mail reflector organized for people who want to discuss AMBER use,
tricks, successes and failures (and maybe other things, who knows ?).
To subscribe, unsubscribe, request address change, etc., send your message to:
     amber-request@cgl.ucsf.edu
To post to this list (i.e., everybody on the "amber" list will get the message)
send your message to:
     amber.cgl.ucsf.edu
Remember, the net-ethics says: "Subscribe before you post".
