However, I've seen at least one structure (1ywf) for which it produces incorrect results; this may not matter if you just want to make figures, but it's problematic for any other uses. I was able to download the DSSP source code from CMBI without signing anything - but it's still proprietary and only free to academics. (And I had no luck compiling it on a Mac, unfortunately.) -Nat
