Abstract
Chemists are trained to communicate chemical information using graphical images, namely, chemical structure diagrams. In consequence, they have been among the earliest and most demanding users of graphical interfaces to computer systems. In order to be able to pursue their research and develop new ideas, they need to conduct searches which combine structural concepts with text and/or data concepts. As most chemists are prepared to learn to use only one or two chemical information systems, the same graphical chemical structure interface should give access to personal, company and public data bases and should also be an integral part of chemical word processing software, chemical CD-ROM products and laboratory microcomputer data bases. The PSIDOM chemical structure drawing interface has already been integrated in a number of products including STN Express, a PC-based front-end package; TORC, a Derwent Ring Code fragment generation program; and Sadtler's IR spectra library search software. All are compatible with the integrated PSIDOM range of software.
