I am traveling and do not have access to my favorite SGI only program
"GRASP". How can I calculate a grasp formatted molecular surface without a
local SGI available to me? I would like to use this surface in the ccp4
program SC (hence the relevence). The surface can be an approximation of
what GRASP would calculate but I just need GRASP format. Does anyone know
what program might calculate a surface then convert it into grasp format
(without requiring my sitting in direct proximity to any particular kind
of machine--especially those kinds that are ridiculously overpriced)?
Grasp will not run on remote X11 sessions without the local machine having
some proprietary SGI graphics libraries on it. I don't believe grasp runs
in command line mode either.  Or am I mistaken?
