MoG: molecular graphics software for the Commodore Amiga.
As recently described by Garavelli, the Commodore Amiga 3000 computer is "nearly ideal" for desktop molecular modeling. The chief drawback to date, has been the lack of suitable software. This paper describes a new desktop molecular modeling package, MoG, which is suitable for both research and educational use. The speed of the Amiga 3000 means that MoG competes very favorably with software on IBM-PC machines, and its graphics capabilities allow excellent space-filling representations. The availability of cheap software-compatible home-computer versions of the Amiga places interactive molecular graphics within the reach of many senior high-school students, undergraduates and graduate students.
