Otis,

Make sure under surfaces (in Spartan) you check potential.  The Smol file
will then work fine.  You can check out a (rudimentary) example here:

Subject: Re: [Jmol-users] SMOL Files

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.
