The macmolecule program is probably your best bet, but you may want to
look at the others.   Get the "readme" file before you cd for more info
on this archive.              -- Don

P.S., I don't think there is any "simple" software that will draw 3D molecular
structures -- it takes a very skilled, smart programmer much time to write 
such.
