Bug#340555: RFP: xymtex -- xymtex chemical notation for latex; xymtex is a macro package for drawing chemical structural formulas.



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : xymtex
  Version         : 4.03
  Upstream Author : Shinsaku Fujita
* URL             : http://imt.chem.kit.ac.jp/fujita/fujitas3/xymtex/indexe.html
* License         : Unspecified (but it's not marked non-distributable as others are)
  Description     : xymtex chemical notation for latex; xymtex is a macro package for drawing chemical structural formulas.

I'd like to have some package to help typeset molecules. XyMTeX is
what wikipedia uses, so if it's good enough for them then it's good
enough for me. There seems to be an alternative called PPCHTeX, if
that's easier to deal with.

Packaging xymtex might not be too easy. You may have to contact
upstream (note that I don't have an email address either) and try to
convince him to include an explicit license of some sort.
