Package details
openSUSE:

BKchem is a free (as in free software :o) chemical drawing program.
BKchem is written in Python, an interpreted and very nice programming language.
This implies some of the program features:
platform independence - BKchem should run on any platform that Python does.*
performance - as Python is interpreted language you should not expect the performance of a native
code compiled application (in present days a very cheap tradeoff for platform independence).
However BKchem should be pretty usable on all modern systems.
* BKchem is developed on GNU/Linux. It was however successfully run under WinXP and MacOS X.
