I would like to express me deepest thanks and gratitude to anyone
supports me an one example of saddle point in ab initio(input file).

True. I tried lesstif, which left me with the problem of an
incompatible libtiff. When I finally had everything, I could start
viewmol, but it would crash immediately.

I contacted the author, who replied that there were several similar
complaints, and that he would release a fully static Linux binary
soon. That ought to solve all problems, at the cost of a much
bigger executable file.

Subject: IP calculation
To: chemistry@www.ccl.net


Dear CCL,
	I'm trying to calculate "accurate" vertical ionization potentials for
small organic molecules (alkene, alcohol, amine).  Can you provide any
literature refs that would compare the accuracy of HF, MP2, and/or DFT (L and
NL) methods?

	Also, I want to make sure that I'm calculating the vertical IP
correctly.  I am optimizing the geometry of the neutral molecule.  I then
calculate the energy of the ground state radical cation at this geometry, and
the ZPE of the neutral at this geometry.  IP(vert) is then given by E(rad cat)
- E(neut) - ZPE.  Is this right?

	Send me your answer directly, tnx.
