[ase-users] Python 2+3 compatible ase-gui

[Michael Walter]

Dear Jens Jorgen,

first of all thanks for your effort and the huge amount of work (I imagine)
for porting.

It's easy to complain of course, and I apologize that I have to do it.
Nevertheless, as you asked for it:

Major points:

1. I, personally, extensively use the coloring possibility and this is
mainly gone now.
2. The setup possibilities of bulk, surface and graphene were very useful
also.

Minor points:

1. In my taste, the structures look more ugly now than before. The black
lines around the atom-balls are too thin and the bonds too thick.
2. The forces are not arrows anymore, but sticks.

I do not think that this should be part of a new release yet. We should
rather keep old version until we have ported everything from there.

How about keeping both and let the new version evolve ?

Best,
Michael
