I believe Garib uses LINKR to add a link name to the record, (cant
find a description in the documentation though???)
but also in the documentation REFMAC is said to provide a link
between symmetry related like this
with the target distance here
LINK 1 P DG A 1 1.61000 O3' DC A 2
1555 6554

But REFMAC a) ignores the given distance and b) writes it out as :
LINK P DG A 1 O3' DC A 2 1555
2554 1.48
This is in agreement with the PDB definition but with a wrong distance
- presumably derived in the innards of the dictionary:

coot seems to refuse to read the LINKR at all!
As for the last bit, do you mean 1) that coot gives a parsing error when
reading files with LINKRs or 2) that coot otherwise parses such files
OK, but skips past LINKR records (and in that case, what would you have
it do?) Which version of mmdb is the coot that you are using linked
against?
