One program you may wish to have a look at is RasMol, which I think
runs on both Suns and SGIs (and other platforms too) using either 8-
or 24-bit color. It is not terribly flexible, but seems to be
improved on a regular basis, and is very fast even over a remote X
connection. In addition to a very easy to use graphical-button
interface, it has a more powerful command line control as well.
RasMol is available from colonsay.dcs.ed.ac.uk in the directory
/export/rasmol. In addition, I have put the HTML documentation (which
comes with the software) on http://www.bio.cam.ac.uk/doc/rasmol.html
