Summary: Support for Spartan04 .smol vibration files

Initial Comment:
To my mind http://jmol.sourceforge.net/demo/vibration/ is an 
excellent way of displaying all the various vibrations a molecule can 
undergo.

But based on Bob Hansons recent comments on Gaussian file 
parsing I wonder if now is a good time to suggest that the vibration 
output from Spartan 04 should be considered for automatic parsing 
by Jmol.

This would allow the use of Spartan 04 output directly in Jmol web 
pages.

Thanks for your efforts. Do I  wait for the next point release of Jmol 
prerelease to test it? And does Jmol.jar have the same functionality?

I'm afraid I don't know if it is Mac only. The "super file" effect you describe 
is a Mac OS X package file. This is used for applications. It is a directory 
behaves like a file and opens an application when double-clicked rather 
than showing the contents.
I sent you the whole package  in case more than one of the contents files 
was required.
I've asked the Spartan developer to comment too.

Ok, support added. It's implemented as a new format, 
which it actually is. I hope it's not just for the Mac, 
because then I have to add this detail.

Mmmm... I found that Spartan 04 files *are* actually 
read, including the vibrations. But the *.smol files you 
send me wrap the output and the input in some sort of 
super file. Nothing wrong with that, but complicates 
things a bit for me... I've added the files to CVS. 
 
Nick, can you explain a bit on these smol files? URL or 
so?

Egon,
As requested, output for carbon dioxide (Raman), water, methane, and 
SF6.

Again if you need more or different examples just let me know.
Nick

Nick, another four would be nice. Preferably from a bit exotic calculations, 
e.g. 
with raman (if possible), or with high symmetry, and water. To get a diverse 
set 
of test files. 
 
Egon.

The format is quite similar to that of Gaussian, so I don't think supporting it 
would be difficult. Miguel, I can do it this weekend.
