Dear all,

I often use jmol to visualise orbitals from turbomole and molcas
calculations. Many of the systems that I work on incorporate actinide
ions and therefore have basis sets including g-like polarisation
functions. An old version of jmol (12.0) would successfully open
molden files even if g-functions were present in the basis set, but
the visualised molecular orbitals didn't appear to share the symmetry
of the molecule. If I try and open the same molden file using jmol
12.2 I get the following error:

script ERROR: Error reading file at line 87:
 g    1 1.00
8
for file E:/tmp/UCl6.molden
type Molden

And so presumably support for basis sets involving g-functions has
been removed. Will this change in the future? I use jmol visualisation
in order to get a feel for appropriate active spaces in
multiconfigurational calculations and currently run separate
calculations without g-functions in order to get the visualisation.

Best wishes,

Andy
