Hi

Thanks for all the suggstions. Currently I just want to extract the 
secondary structure as specified in the PDB file. I am having trouble 
understanding how to utilize the AminoAcid class (after having looked at 
the source...). Does anyone have an example of extracting the secondary 
structure from a PDB file using the AminoAcid class in Biojava? Or any 
example using the AminoAcid class to extract info from a PDB file?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The software required "Windows XP or better" ... so I installed Linux
