Speaking of InChI and InChIKey - I noticed that InChIKey calculated
through libopenbabel (via a Perl script in my case) seems to end with a
carriage return. Surely the library should return just the InChI or
InChIKey string without "\n" stuck at the end?

Doing More with Less: The Next Generation Virtual Desktop 
What are the key obstacles that have prevented many mid-market businesses
from deploying virtual desktops?   How do next-generation virtual desktops
provide companies an easier-to-deploy, easier-to-manage and more affordable
virtual desktop model.http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51426474/
