Less Summaryįor Mac users who also need to use a PC at work, home or just with specific applications, there is a solution. For older versions ofMac OS (10.4 or 10.5), the more recent packages do not work with PHENIX, soyou will need to use the obsoleteCoot 0.6 build.Windows 7 Enterprise Windows 7 Home Basic Windows 7 Home Premium Windows 7 Professional Windows 7 Ultimate More. The builds arenow nightly, and include both command-line and graphical installers. Note that you will need to berunning Snow Leopard (OS 10.6) to use many of these, but some obsolete (butstill functional) builds of Coot for older OSes are available. Both aredescribed on Bill Scott's web page. Two options are available: use the Finkpackage manager, or download a standalone installation. Most of these will work on other OSes than those named, but wehaven't tested them extensively. Any file with 'python' in the name is suitable for usewith PHENIX. We recommend downloading installers directly fromPaulEmsley's web page.

Note: the installersavailable on the CCP4 web page have not worked with PHENIX in the past asof May 2011, the Mac installer appears to be fine, but you will need to specifythe path (/Applications/coot.app) in the PHENIX preferences. This requires a build of Coot that includes a working Pythoninterpreter if the PHENIX extensions are not functioning, this is almostcertainly due to the lack of Python in the Coot build. Theextensions included with the PHENIX GUIallow control of Coot from PHENIX, including automatic loading of models andmaps.

Coot is the standard programfor model-building into density, written chiefly by Paul Emsley.
