Excerpt from the program announcement:

XMol allows researchers to view (on any X11 display server) 3D molecular models produced by other software packages, and to print Encapsulated PostScript copies of molecular displays. Molecular models can be translated and rotated in a variety of ways. Animations of multi-step datafiles are possible, as are the calculations of atom-to-atom distances, bond angles, and torsion angles. Modest editing features are also supported, allowing the user to change the type and charge of individual atoms.
