I just discovered this pretty cool application:
http://www.compuchem.de/literat/kristalle.html
http://www.compuchem.de/crista.htm
The homepage is written in german but I guess the screenies should give you an
idea what the app is able to do.
Is it possible to code those dialogs in PyQt4 with Avogadro? I might be
interested in coding them, but not in c++.

Yes, using Avogadro 0.9.2 you can use PyQt4 for the dialog and use the
Avogadro python module to set/get the unit cell. Since the unit cell
class used in avogadro is the OB one, you will also need the openbabel
python module.
Example showing how to get the unit cell: (in Avogadro’s PythonTerminal)
import Avogadro
import openbabel
mol = openbabel.OBMol(Avogadro.molecule.OBMol)
unitcell = openbabel.toUnitCell(mol.GetData(openbabel.UnitCell))
unitcell = openbabel.toUnitCell(mol.GetData(openbabel.UnitCell))
print unitcell
<openbabel.OBUnitCell; proxy of <Swig Object of type
‘OpenBabel::OBUnitCell *’ at 0xa4f35f8> >
You can implement this as an Extension. See

Feel free to ask questions if you encounter problems…
