Dear Oleksandr, Thanks for the suggestions.

If you want it to coincide with existing atom, change it's charge by a VERY small amount (usually you want small point charges to remain in the linear response regime) If your point charge should be in a different place, simply put a pseudo-hydrogen atom with a very small charge (using the pseudo generated by the above program). But since we are still working with pseudopotentials your potential would represent a real point charge only beyond some distance (~1A).
