        Introduction
        ============
        
        NanoCap provides both libraries and a standalone application for the construction 
        of capped nanotubes of arbitrarily chirality and fullerenes of any radius. Structures 
        are generated by constructing a set of optimal dual graph topologies which 
        are subsequently optimised using a carbon interatomic potential. Combining 
        this approach with a GUI featuring 3D rendering capabilities allows for the rapid 
        inspection of physically sensible structures which can be used as input for 
        molecular simulation. 
        
        Requirements
        ============
        
        NanoCap as a library with no GUI.
