No worries, I don't know VASP input and so can't really comment on that. I thought you were looking at other QM codes too? There are a number of codes I would love to integrate with, and ways that we might extend input generation, filters/workflows, or other aspects of Avogadro. You could work on c

It is not for the generators, it was for some of the data operations (at least as I saw it) in Python, i.e. let Python modify the molecule in various ways. On Thu, Mar 1, 2018 at 11:00 AM, B Adarsh wrote: > I have a small doubt. > I came across another script " > *avogadrolibs/avogadro/qtplugins

That sounds great to me, as with anything it is about finding the things that interest you the most. I am fine with a naive /.avogadro that would work on most OSes, if it doesn't exist we would skip, duplicates may happen. Personally I would then just symlink whatever local files I am working on in
