Macromolecular coordinate superposition library

Description:

SSM is a macromolecular coordinate superposition library, written by Eugene Krissinel.

Acta Crystallogr D Biol Crystallogr. 60, 2256-68. This package contains the shared library components needed for programs that have been compiled with the ssm library.
