Daylight v4.9
Release Date: 1 February 2008

Name

autorules - automatically generate SMARTS rules for rubicon

Unix Synopsis

autorules [-u] [-v] out.rules

Description

The autorules(1) program reads conformations as input and writes a rule file as output. The input file is a "training set" of conformations. Autorules uses every conformation in the training set to determine distance-geometry limits.

A thorough discussion of rubicon distance-geometry rules is beyond the scope of this document. See the "Rubicon Reference Manual" for more information.

Options

-u Produce (unsigned) volume rules.
Unsigned volumes of branches and quads provide additional constraints, but add considerably to the size of the rule file (and much of the information is redundant). The default is not to produce unsigned volume rules.
-v Verbose.
Add comments to the output file showing SMILES of structures resulting in extremal limits. This option increases the size of the rule file and is useful if you are going to examine it manually. Default is not to produce extremal SMILES as comments.

Return Value

Returns status 0 if all goes well, or 1 if a problem is detected.
