APBS
Introduction
PyMol currently supports the APBS plugin. See Michael Lerner's Page for more details.
Required Dependencies
APBS and its dependencies like pdb2pqr and maloc are freely available under the GPL. The author of the software however asks that users register with him to aid him in obtaining grant funding.
Installing the Dependencies on OS X
- First, register your use of the software. This will keep everyone happy.
- Second, if you don't already have the fink package management system, now is a good time to get it. Here is a quick-start set of instructions. Once you are up and going, activate the unstable branch in fink, and then issue the commands
fink self-update fink install apbs
or if you want to use the multi-processor version, issue
fink self-update fink install apbs
Then install the X-windows based version of pymol using the command
fink install pymol-py24
Further details are given elsewhere in this wiki.
