Re: AMBER: antechamber bug? produces incorrect NEWPDB.PDB file

That could be helpful. I notice that the sleap addhydr command requires
proper bonding. Of course, a ligand found in a PDB file generally does not
specify bonding. So, for example, all aromatic rings are connected, but
there's no indication of single/double alternation. And alcohols and
carbonyl groups might be hard to differentiate.

Does the sleap fixbond command require the presence of hydrogens? Or is it
capable of discerning valency from bond distances and angles?

Maybe my question is this: What are the limitations of the fixbond command?
