Dear Manish,

See R.E.D. Server Development at
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDS-Development/
   (vs R.E.D. Server at http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDS-Development/)

All should be re-opened tonight...

If you decide to use R.E.D. Server Development (compatible with all
the elements of the periodic table) - as you underlined in your email
- pay attention to the atom names you use in the PDB input file; for
instance:
. HG/Hg/HG1 should be recognized as a mercury atom (& not as an hydrogen atom)
. CA as ... Calcium and not as a alpha carbon
. same problem for NA, CO, CL (Fe vs F) etc...
(R.E.D. Python provides a way to differentiate HG as a mercury or a
hydrogen atom and more generally all these ambiguities).

We can also post-process the data you will obtained using R.E.D. IV by
using R.E.D. Perl where the atom types, and frcmod files will be
automatically generated for all the elements of the periodic tables...

regards, Francois
