9Mar 14, 2011 2:23 PMThis is an intermediate answer berween yes/no: even if I use PLATON, which I consider a superb program, I do not master its use and so I extract from it only part of its capabilities. May be it is because I began using it in my late 50's, when begining with my work as a Coeditor, but I find difficult to grasp the program's phylosophy of use. On the other hand I realize SHELXL may be as coumbersome as PLATON to master, but I have been using it for ages. In addition, there are superb reviews on its use, as the one by Peter Mueller. Something by the like about PLATON would be extremely useful (at least for me!).
