Try this: edit the nucleic12.lib file, making a copy of DA, and call it 6MA
(or something else). Change the base so that it looks like the base in in the
6MA entry in all_modrna08.lib file -- you will mainly be editing atom types
and charges.

You can also visit the R.E.D. server to see if this has already been done, or
to undertake the project there.

...good luck...dac
