Victor,
Bob Hanson who implemented the orbital calculations can speak to
this more precisely, but the short answer is that code needs to added
to make this work. There are two parts of the package that need to
be worked on:
1) The GAMESS log file reader (something I'm hoping to have a little
time for this spring).
2) The orbital calculation code will need to be changed to generate
NBO representations. Not being up on the literature, I have no idea
how involved that is.
So, you need to put in a feature request. And if you could offer
some help that would be wonderful. I use GAMESS, but have no
experience with NBOs. Thus it would be very useful if you could send
me a couple of files with NBO results in them (something simple like
O2 and H2O).
