zb is a small (less than 200 lines) Tcl/Tk program (Ousterhout, 1994[link]) that provides a simple graphical front end to a ZINC-format file or CIF allowing the user to browse through the contents. Multiple files can be viewed simultaneously, as can multiple data blocks, on any X terminal. zb recognizes command-line argument file names in the form *.cif as being in CIF format and converts them to ZINC format automatically.
