I have used JOELib [1] and the CDK [2] (the Chemistry Development Kit)
to calculate molecular descriptors. Both of these programs are
open-source, and written in Java. They are intended to be used as
libraries for programmers. If you don't want to use Java, you can access
these programs through Python (either with Jython or JPype) - for a
brief tutorial see my article in the CDK News [3].

Dear chemistry#:

I have these definitions in the molpro calculation:
-d/var/tmp/$LOGNAME \
-I/var/tmp/$LOGNAME \
-W$HOME/wfu \

But I find that nothing have been saved in these directories.

Then how can I read orbitals from files like 2100.2?

In a molpro job which has different calculations, I know that the later calculations 
will use the orbitals before them. But how to read orbitals from other molpro jobs?

    Thank you for your help!

Yours sincerely, 				
Ding Xunlei

 Dear all,

 I have noticed that some excitation energies , in
closed shell systems, have energies similar to the
HOMO-LUMO gap.

 Considering that the term 'HOMO-LUMO gap' is not very
appropriate for open shell systems, how can we do a
rough estimate of the excitation energies in this
case?
Shall they be somewhat similar to the homo-somo(singly
occupied orbital) gap?
Can the gaps mentioned by Ding Xunlei,on his CCL
communication, have any meaning at all?

Thanks

Sage Informatics has just released ChemTKX, an ActiveX and DLL product
allowing users to incorporate features of the ChemTK desktop product
into their own Windows programs.

ChemTKX features include:
- Create molecule objects from common text representations such as
  Daylight Smiles and MDL MOL/SDF, or from scratch using intuitive
  commands such as CreateAtom and CreateBond
- Perform substructure searches using Daylight Smarts syntax or
  ChemTK Encoded syntax, among others
- Convert molecule objects to JPEG or BMP image files, with or without
  structural highlighting
- Generate and display molecule depictions within specified windows,
  with or without structural highlighting
- Generate canonical Smiles representations of molecules
- Generate maximum common substructures (MCSs)
- Generate 2D atomic coordinates for a molecule
- Convert molecules from one representational format to another
