Bob and Angel,

Thanks for the responses. My original thinking was that there was no way that Jmol was going to read the huge .spartan file for methane. Per Bob's note and Angel's note, wrong! It reads the file just fine. The resulting Jmol rendering of methane has vibration information, but not the electrostatic information for MEPS. We'll go back and do it again. I assume that we're not selecting the correct calculations in Spartan.

I'll post a follow-up after we check this just to record a resolution to an issue that may be of interest to other users.

Otis,

There are a few different Spartan file types, including .smol, .spartan, .sparchive, and full "spardir" Spartan directories that are zipped up (or not). Jmol recognizes them all. So save your file in whatever Spartan format you can, and see if Jmol will read it. If it doesn't, send the file to me.

Hello-

I'm interested in taking a closer look at using Jmol to display MEPS. The Jmol sample smol files for benzene and fluoromethane work very nicely. The smol file type appears to be a Spartan related file type. I'm having trouble tracking down information on this file type. Using Mac Spartan 06, there does not seem to be any smol option, nor does the Mac Spartan documentation reference this file type. Can anyone point me to more information about creating this file type from Spartan? Alternatively, are there any other suggestions regarding software packages, including Spartan, that can export Jmol readable files with electrostatic data for MEPS display?
