CIF Software

Software package for reading selected CIF data into user-specified variable names in a DDL domain dictionary, generating a customized input function callable from C or Fortran programs.

tables for publication via (small molecule) CIF format; part of the SHELX program suite

initial version of Fortran toolbox

CIFtbx is a function library for programmers developing CIF applications. It is written in Fortran and is intended for use with Fortran programs.

Fortran function library for programmers developing CIF applications, including dictionary-aware validation and support for related tools such as cif2cif and CYCLOPS.

Suite of test files conforming, or intentionally not conforming, to STAR/CIF syntax, extending the CIF 1.0 syntax test suite for CIF 1.1 validation work.

Program developed to create TeX files suitable for typesetting Acta Crystallographica articles from CIF content.

Combined distribution of CIFEDIT for viewing and editing CIFs and pdCIFplot for inspecting Rietveld fits from pdCIF.

application program for translating files in mmCIF format into files in PDB format (from the Protein Data Bank)

open-source collection of command line scripts for handling of CIF files, developed by the team of Crystallography Open Database developers

Perl module for detecting and reporting the most common CIF syntax errors, developed by the team of Crystallography Open Database developers

initial version of CIF data name checker

Program for validating apparent CIF data names in any ASCII text, not only CIF files, against one or more CIF dictionaries.

Tool for converting mmCIF data into SQL and auxiliary configuration files loadable into relational database engines, with optional XML output for the mapped schema.

Class library providing an object view of mmCIF dictionaries via dictionary object files, with example applications for validation, persistence and attribute access.

converts diffractometer output files to CIF format

Intuitive, user-friendly graphical interface for editing CIF files available for free download from the CCDC.

Finalcif is mainly intended for Bruker users, but works for other CIF files as well. It gathers all the information from a working folder that is needed to complete a CIF file for publishing. Ideally, one click is required to get a publishable file. Predefined templates make it easy to add recurring information such as author information.
FinalCif provides convenient methods for CheckCif checking and storing the CIF file in crystallographic databases.

C++11 library that reads and writes CIF files; with Python bindings.
