Babel is a distance-vector routing protocol for IPv6 and IPv4. It is designed to be robust and work efficiently on both wired networks and wireless mesh networks. License: MIT/X Consortium License Changes:
This version implements a new packet format (version 2) which is more robust, less chatty, and more flexible than version 1. It is incompatible with previous versions of Babel.
obgrep(1) User's Reference Manual obgrep(1)NAME
obgrep -- an advanced molecular search program using SMARTS
SYNOPSIS
obgrep [OPTIONS] 'SMARTS-pattern' filename
DESCRIPTION
The obgrep tool can be used to search for molecules inside multi-molecule database files (e.g., SMILES, SDF, etc.) or across multiple files.
OPTIONS
If only a filename is given, obgrep will attempt to guess the file type from the filename extension.
-c Print the number of matches
-f Full match, print matching-molecules only when the number of heavy atoms is also equal to the number of atoms in the SMARTS pattern
-i format
Specifies input and output format, see babel(1) for available formats
-n Only print the name of the molecules
-t # Print a molecule only if the pattern occurs # times inside the molecule
-v Invert the matching, print non-matching molecules
EXAMPLES
Note that in all examples, the SMARTS pattern is enclosed in single quotes '...' to ensure it is not changed by the shell.
Print all the molecules with a methylamine group:
obgrep 'CN' database.smi
Print all the molecules without a methylamine group:
obgrep -v 'CN' database.smi
Print the number of molecules without a methylamine group:
obgrep -v -c 'CN' database.smi
Print methylamine (if it exists in the file):
obgrep -f 'CN' database.smi
Print methylamine and/or methanol (if they exist):
obgrep -f 'C[N,O]' database.smi
Print all molecules with aromatic carbon in all SMILES files in the directory (i.e., *.smi)
obgrep 'c' *.smi
