The Gnome Chemistry Utils is a collection of chemistry related programs

- a crystal structues viewer and editor.
- a periodic table of the elements.
- a spectrum viewer.

Main news for the 0.12 series are:

GChemPaint:
- Use a new cairo based canvas;
- New tools: orbitals and curved arrows;
- Enhanced text tools;
- Experimental cdx and cdxml export (not compatible with old ChemDraw
versions).

GCrystal:
- Supports space groups;
- Load CML and export both CIF and CML.

Best regards,
Jean
