+This package contains tools belonging to
+CADDSuite: A flexible and open framework for Computer-Aided Drug Design
+
+There are tools for the following tasks:
+
+Get Data:
+	- CombiLibGenerator: generate R-group decorated ligands
+	- DBExporter: fetch (filtered) molecules from DB
+
+Preparation of input:
+	- PDBCutter: separate ligand and receptor
+	- ProteinProtonator: protonate protein structures
+	- BindingDBCleaner: fix data from bindingdb.org
+	- EvenSplit: generate splits w/ equal property range
+	- PropertyModifier: modify property tags
+	- LigandFileSplitter: split molecule files
+	- Ligand3DGenerator: generate 3D coordinates for small molecules
+
+Structure checks and evaluations:
+	- ProteinCheck: evaluate protein quality
+	- LigCheck: chemical sanity check for ligands
+
+QuEasy (QSAR):
+	- InputReader: read molecules and generate features
+	- ModelCreator: create a QSAR model
+	- FeatureSelector: automatically select features of a QSAR model
+	- Validator: evaluate quality of a QSAR model
+	- MolPredictor: predict molecule activities with QSAR model
+	- AutoModel: automatically find best QSAR model
+
+Docking:
+	- WaterFinder: find strongly bound water molecules
+	- ConstraintsFinder: find strongly interacting residues

+	- TaGRes-train: Target-specific Grid-Rescoring, training
+	- TaGRes: Target-specific Grid-Rescoring
+	- AntitargetRescoring: rescore w/ respect to antitarget
+
+Analysis:
+	- ScoreAnalyzer: generate ROC or enrichment plots
+	- SimilarityAnalyzer: analyze similarity between two molecule sets
+	- PropertyPlotter: plot molecule properties
+	- RMSDCalculator: calculate RMSD between conformations
+	- VendorFinder: search vendors for compounds
+
+Convert, combine and store:
+	- DockResultMerger: merge docking output files and/or filter them
+	- MolCombine: combine molecular files
+	- DBImporter: import molecules into DB
+	- Converter: interconvert molecular file-formats
+	- MolDepict: generate structure diagrams
+	- VendorFinder: search vendors for compounds
+
