# bpchem
bpchem -- Support for typesetting chemical formulae, IUPAC compound names and more
Author: Bjørn Pedersen

This package has been written to alleviate the task of writing publications containing
lots of chemistry. It provides methods for typesetting chemical names,
sum formulae and isotopes. It provides the possibility to break very long names
even over several lines.
This package also provides a way to automatically enumerate your chemical
compounds, allowing for one-level subgrouping.
What this package does not provide: Methods to draw chemical compounds.
Although there exist some packages,which where designed for this purpose (e.g.
xymtex, PPChTex) they are quite limited once you get to complex organic, or
metal organic compounds. I recommend using an external drawing program, possibly
in conjunction with psfrag, in these cases.
