NAME
       xdrawchem - open-source chemical structures editor similar to ChemDraw

SYNOPSIS
       xdrawchem [INPUT-FILE] [OPTION(S)...] [OUTPUT-FILE]

DESCRIPTION

       -png OUTPUT-FILE
	  Create a PNG image of an input file and exit.

       -t -png OUTPUT-FILE
	  Create a transparent PNG image of an input file and exit.

       -3d OUTPUT-FILE
	  Create a Make 3D model of input file and output a MDL mofile.
