I have tested the jmol-9 with outputs of G03 and it can only read those
that use the XYZ as an input, the Z-matrix is still not solved

Depending on the actual version of Jmol:

Jmol 10pre6:
================

Start Jmol like:

java -Dmodel=cdk -jar Jmol.jar

(Miguel, I will make a patch that will try model=simple and them
model=cdk so 
that we can drop this command line switch asap...)

Jmol 10pre6 supports Gaussian 98 and 03 output.

Jmol 9
================

Simply start Jmol and use the File->Open menu to open the Gaussian file.
Gaussian 94 up to 03 is supported.


OK, that's the theory and works for all gaussian files we have to test
it 
against. But it might be that your Gaussian file has features not taken
into 
account. If you think this is the case, I would like to ask you to send
us a 
file (preferably with a notice that we may include it Jmol for
distribution 
under GPL license for testing purposes) which is given trouble...
