Is RasMol "Year 2000 (Y2K) compliant"?
RasMol 2.6 and all prior versions are fully Y2K compliant with a single
caveat. RasMol can read and write MDL Mol and Brookhaven PDB files, which
reserve only two characters for the year in a date field. RasMol ignores
these fields and is therefore not affected by Y2K. However programs
reading MDL Mol files generated by RasMol (or any other molecular graphics
program) may suffer if they process the date field.
