                           sff version 0.1

SFF stands for simple force field. It is a C implementation of the 
amber force field made by Tom Macke and David Case.

This package exposes a wrapped version of the prm structure which holds the
Amber parameters needed for an Amber calculation. It also exposes the mme 
and md functions to perform molecular mechanics and dynamics respectively.

BUILDING:

building this package requires SWIG v1.3.20 and python2.4
	python2.4 setup.py install
this will build SFF python extension in build/lib.<platform_specifier>/sff
and install the sff package into sys.exec_prefix/lib/python2.4/site-packages.
To specify the install directory use --install-platlib option:
	python2.4 setup.py install --install-platlib=INSTALL_DIR

To build the extension only:
	python2.4 setup.py build
this will build SFF python extension in build/lib.<platform_specifier>/sff.

To build the distribution:
	python2.4 setup.py sdist
