36. This drawing was made with the KANVAS computer graphics program. This program is based on the program SCHAKAL of E. Keller (Kristallographisches Institute der Universität Freiburg, Germany), which was modified by A. J. Arduengo III (E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., Wilmington, DE) to produce the back and shadowed planes. The planes bear a 50 pm grid, and the lighting source is at infinity, so that shadow size is meaningful.
