 | To install a movie,
just download the ZIP file and unpack it in the yasara/mov directory (which of course requires that you have at least
YASARA View installed). MacOSX tries to hide the
yasara directory from you: open Finder, browse to the YASARA application and click on
'Show package contents' in the context menu to see the yasara directory.
If you then click on Help > Play help movie, the new movie will appear in the list.
Movies are simply YASARA macros, that use multimedia elements to create interactive tutorials or presentations. Works well instead of the usual PowerPoint approach. Instructions how to create your own movies can be found in the YASARA documentation by clicking on
'Recipes - Answer complex questions' -> 'Create your own YASARA movies'.

| A tutorial explaining how to replace a loop or an entire domain, for example to create a hybrid template for homology modeling. Many thanks to Sven Geier for his
'Hidden' background (more at www.sgeier.net/fractals).

| Plugins are Python scripts or Yanaconda macros that extend YASARA's user interface and get activated when you click the respective option. They are the method of choice to extend YASARA with your own functions.
All plugins are distributed together with YASARA and should be available from the graphical user interface. Windows users need to have Python from
www.python.org installed. To reinstall a plugin, just download the ZIP file and unpack it in the yasara/plg
directory. If you then restart YASARA, the new options will appear in the menus. If you are not sure where the option appears,
look at the top of the main plugin file (*.mcr or *.py).  | °
| FoldX forcefield plugin | This plugin provides access to various tools from the FoldX molecular modeling and design program in YASARA. FoldX can be obtained from http://foldx.crg.es. Plugin updates and documentation are provided at http://foldxyasara.switchlab.org. Especially for academics,
commercial users need a FoldX license. Written by:

| Macros are written using the Yanaconda language. If you already know a programming language,
you can learn Yanaconda in 15 minutes, otherwise it may take 30. To install, just save the macro in the directory yasara/mcr or wherever you want it. The syntax of Yanaconda is described in the YASARA documentation.

° | Running an energy minimization
| This macro runs an energy minimization of the soup. Compared to the normal minimization experiment,
it temporarily adds a water shell so that all force fields can be used directly,
also those optimized for use with explicit solvent Written by:
