To better understand what InChI does it is strongly recommended that you run the Win32 GUI application wInChI.exe against your test structures as it displays: • Input structures as InChI understands them, with all H and charges. • Their initial numberings. • Canonical numberings, equivalence and tautomeric groups. • Stereo parities. • Bond changes (these cannot be observed in any other way but in w-InChI or under a debugger). It is also possible to run w-InChI under WINE. Some parties have been successful in running w-InChI.exe under WINE build 20050524 running on Mandrake 10.1.
