[3dem] Help on particles automatic boxing

[Steven Ludtke]

I would say it depends very much on what you're picking. If you are picking something like a spherical
virus particle then there are fully automatic tools like Ethan which do a near-perfect job. Other approaches
are semi-automatic. Possibilities include:

boxer in EMAN1
e2boxer in EMAN2
Signature
SwarmPS

For free cryo-EM software, this should be the definitive reference :
