Licorice
`Licorice' draws the atoms as spheres and the bonds as cylinders.  The
difference between this and 
`CPK' is that 
the sphere radius is not controllable; instead, it is made the same 
size as the bond.  This makes for a nice, smooth transition and is one 
of the most often used representations.
It can be rather slow for large molecules.
