What is JMV?            See also http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Development/jmv/
------------------------------------------------------------------------
JMV is a molecular viewer written in Java and Java3D.
JMV is designed to be an easy-to-use, platform neutral, molecular
visualization tool, which can be used standalone or integrated into
a larger program.  JMV provides several molecular representations,
multiple coloring styles, lighting controls, and stereoscopic rendering
capabilities.  JMV loads PDB files over the web from the RCSB protein
databank, from BioCoRE filesystems, and from local filesystems.
