What is xdrawchem
xdrawchem is a two-dimensional molecule drawing program for Unix operating systems. It is similar in functionality to other molecule drawing programs such as ChemDraw (TM, CambridgeSoft). It can read and write MDL Molfiles and CML files to allow sharing between xdrawchem and other chemistry applications.
We can use yum or dnf to install xdrawchem on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install xdrawchem.
