Dear Xie,

In order to run DISTANG for the command line you must type something
like this

distang xyzin your_PDB.file

If you just type `distang` the message below will appear.

(in order to do a translational grid search of a molecule over the asymmetric unit). But the program aborts with the following error message when I type DISTANG at the command line.
