The programs were written for personal use. Later it seemed that they may be some use to other people, so a few comments appeared. If looked into the code it is not very regular and written in a somewhat personal notes manner. The programs are provided 'as is' and in principle are not supported. However, bug reports and suggestions are generally welcome.

What does it do?

 tab2bmrb - Utility to convert  protein NMR chem. shifts table to BMRB file format ; BMRB = BioMagResBank

 bmrb2tab - Utility to convert  BMRB file to chem. shifts table ;

 calc_cs -  Utility to calc random coil chem. shifts for given protein sequence;

 calc  -  Utility to calc average, power and length NMR pulses (approximately),
          1H H2O carrier temperature dependence, PHI angle from 3JHN(CA)HA coupling constant (see program for formulas).


 It is possible to type the name of the program without arguments to get helping comment.
 In principle, all programs are tested for correctness of produced results.
