The enCIFer program permits the location, reporting and correction of syntax and format violations in single‐ or multi‐block crystallographic information files (CIFs). The program also permits the editing of existing individual or looped data items and the addition of new data in these categories, and provides data‐entry wizards for the addition of two types of standard information for small‐molecule structural studies, namely publication data and chemical and physical property information. Facilities for the graphical visualization and manipulation of structure(s) in a CIF are also provided.
