Databases
The database for a search can be one or more structures; it is specified by a STRUCTS option.

For larger databases, C-alpha (.cal) or binary C-alpha formats are recommended; binary C-alpha (.bca) is the smallest and fastest to load.

See file format conversion for how to create .cal and .bca files.
