AngelHerraez: Forcing Jmol to read a file assuming a certain molecular file format

<p>Forcing Jmol to read a file assuming a certain molecular file format</p>
<p><b>New page</b></p><div>= Forcing Jmol to read a file assuming a certain molecular file format =<br />
<br />
Jmol will read any file and try to determine its format from its content. The file extension is not taken into account for identifying the format. You can instruct Jmol as to which format to assume using this special command syntax:<br />
<br />
: <code>load </code>''fileFormat''<code>::</code>''fileName''<br />
<br />
where <code>fileName</code> includes the path, the file name itself and the file extension; paths may be absolute or relative; a full URL may also be used.<br />
<br />
Following is the list of <code>fileFormat</code> values (case-insensitive) recognized by Jmol:<br />
