Hi Noel,

thanks for the quick reply. Actually, I was trying it through the library 
directly (approximately 
like below):
    using namespace OpenBabel;
    OBConversion conversion;
    conversion.SetInFormat("INCHI");
    OBMol molecule;
    conversion.ReadString(&molecule, "InChI=1S/C3H7NO2/c1-2(4)3(5)6/h2H,4H2,1H3,
(H,5,6)/t2-/m1/s1");
    std::map<std::string, std::string> options;
    options["gen2D"] = "";
    molecule.DoTransformations(&options, &conversion);
    FOR_BONDS_OF_MOL(obbond, molecule)
            cout << obbond->IsWedgeOrHash() << endl;
... and the output indicated that no bond was a wedge or hash, as I would have 
expected.

Alternatively, I put the above InChI string into a file and did the following:
        obabel -i inchi /tmp/d-alanine.inchi -Otestout.mol
To the best of my understanding of the MOL format, the fourth column of the 
bond block 
should contain the stereo info if any. The output bond block reads:
  1  2  1  0  0  0  0
  2  3  1  0  0  0  0
  2  4  1  0  0  0  0
  3  5  2  0  0  0  0
  3  6  1  0  0  0  0
so all zeros.

Again, I'm curious what I'm missing...

Best wishes,

Hendrik
