Hi,

I will take care of the PS, but can you post your other question to
vo...@googlegroups.com instead, so that other users can see it too.

Thanks,

Christoph

I noticed that the mps file can be generated with the tool molpol. And then I used the command "$ xtp_tools -p molpol -o molpol.xml" to generate the file molpol.xml. After reading the file, I found that I needed to fill in the blank of <qmpackage>, and the default choice is orca. However, I use Gaussian more. So I am wondering what should I type if I use Gaussian, gaussian or g09 or else? And I am also doubtful that what a role <qmpackage> takes in this calculation since I guess that votca is not going to invoke other programms like gaussian or orca...?
