Colors

Default colors used by Jmol

Several users have asked about a guide to colors used by Jmol by default.

This documentation is now available on Jmol website here. Suggestions are welcome for future improvements, via jmol-users mailing list.

The plan is:

• colors for atoms (by element) --done
• colors for chains --done
• colors for groups / residues --done
• alternative color patterns: Jmol, Rasmol, DRuMS --partly done
• anything else?
