I'm posting this to the general list, since everyone might not know
about it. Pacific Northwest Labs has a very useful basis set server web
page. You can find this at:

http://www.emsl.pnl.gov:2080/forms/basisform.html

They have output for many common programs (Gaussian, GAMESS, etc.). If
the format you like isn't there, you can write a little python/perl
script to do the conversion.

By the way, I've been quite happy with the cc-pVTZ basis set for the
second row elements. Here is the cc-pVTZ P basis set (from the PNL
server):

-------- MANY THANKS !! -----------

Original message:
-----------------------------------------------------------
Hi CCL,
 Could you please tell if there is any editor for Linux that allows
working (inserting, deleting, moving, etc) with data columns. And, if
yes, where can I find it?

---------------------------------------------------------
Some Answers:
---------------------------------------------------------
From:  "Ned C. Haubein" <nch425@merle.acns.nwu.edu>
1) you could get Star Office (free) which has a spreadsheet program in
it. 
2) you could get gnumeric which is the GNU spreadsheet, although it is
still in development  (also free)
3) you can use a scripting language like awk or perl
to write a program if you are performing the same task over and over
again. 

---------------------------------------------------
From: Iraj Daizadeh <daizadeh@nucleus.harvard.edu>
For multiple alignments editors require in a most direct way your
interests...please check the following--for example...
http://www.ibcp.fr/mpsa

First transform your data into the following form:
150109492812
10328283823
39183923023043

or 

agtctgtctttct
agcttttcttctc

I am only guessing that it can perform the same column functions with
numbers as well...--doubt it in retrospect....this is not excel....

--------------------------------------------------------
From: Gregory Durst <DURST_GREGORY@Lilly.com>
What I use to modify column data is 'awk' This is a standard unix tool
on all
unix machines, including linux.  If you need help there is a good
O'Reilly &
Assoc. book on awk titled "sed & awk" by Dale Dougherty.

--------------------------------------------------------------
From: eaabbott@att.net 
Emacs (free from the Gnu people, FSF, under the same 
licensing agreement as linux) has maybe the easiest 
column editing tools if you need to edit your data files. 
 There might be others, but emacs can select columns and 
cut and paste them with just a few keystrokes, and I'm 
sure emacs is readily available to you.  Vi is a real 
pain for column editing.  Emacs has a steeper learning 
curve than many editors, but it is well worth the effort. 
 You might also find that the linux tools awk and sed 
might be of great use to you.  Read the man pages for 
them on your linux box for more info.

--------------------------------------------------
From: Doug Henry <Dough@mdli.com>
Nedit is a free, X-windows based editor that can cut and paste columns
of
data:
http://www-pat.fnal.gov/nirvana/nedit.html
------------------------------------------------------
From: Jan Labanowski <jkl@ccl.net>

For simple things the good old emacs has colum functions:
   M-x kill-rectangle         
   M-x yank-rectangle
You mark the rectangular region (from mark to current cursor), kill it,
(i.e., cut it out), move the cursor where you want it placed
and yank it. Of course, you can kill it, and not yank it, if you only
want to delete text.

--------------------------------------------------------
From: Iraj Daizadeh <daizadeh@nucleus.harvard.edu>
Emacs...fine...
For a nicer interface try the freeware product:	nedit,
latent on sgi....to pick out columns use the control-mouse (index1 
for righthanders)...

-----------------------------------------------------------
From: Claudio Chuaqui <chuaqui@rowland.org>
 ...Of course, unless you are familiar with emacs already,
it is no snap to learn.

--------------------------------------------------------------
From: Eric Martin <martine@electra.chiron.com>
GNU Emacs has the following rectangle editing commands that can also be
used to cut and paste columns.

clear-rectangle		      C-x r c
  Command: Blank out rectangle with corners at point and mark.
copy-rectangle-to-register    C-x r r
  Command: Copy rectangular region into register REGISTER.
delete-rectangle	      C-x r d
  Command: Delete (don't save) text in rectangle with point and mark as
corners.
kill-rectangle		      C-x r k
  Command: Delete rectangle with corners at point and mark; save as last
killed one.
open-rectangle		      C-x r o
  Command: Blank out rectangle with corners at point and mark, shifting
text right.
string-rectangle	      C-x r t
  Command: Insert STRING on each line of the region-rectangle, shifting
text right.
yank-rectangle		      C-x r y
  Command: Yank the last killed rectangle with upper left corner at
point.
These, combined with the macro recording and playback functions, work
pretty well.

Emacs is in ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/
-----------------------------------------------------
From: "Michael K. Gilson" <gilson@carb.nist.gov>
 ...There are various versions of emacs, some with more
user-friendly buttons and menus, such as Xemacs.  I have used it for
years and like it a lot.  It also works on other Unix systems, and there
is even a version for Win32 systems.

--------------------------------------------------
From: Peter Varnai <varnai@bellatrix.pcl.ox.ac.uk>
Vi IMproved (VIM) can do the work for you, use Ctrl-V to
select the coloumn, use x to delete, yank it to a buffer
by "ay and then paste it by "ap.
This editor should be on your linux by typing "vi" or
can get it from www.vim.org

----------------------------------------------------
From: Rick Venable <rvenable@deimos.cber.nih.gov>
There are, of course, spreadsheet type packages available such as
xspread and oleo under Linux.
Another option is an editor named ce, based on the old Apollo DomainOS
editor of the same name, which supports rectangular cut and paste.  You
can shift column alignments easily by inserting or deleting columns of
spaces almost as easily as inserting/deleting lines of text.
You can download the package (free for Linux) via

ftp ftp.std.com         [login as anonymous]
cd /ftp/vendors/ETG

Finally, some claim "emacs can do this easily", but I've always found
emacs to be too cumbersome and cryptic for my tastes (YMMV).

--------------------------------------------------------
From: Harry Johnson <harry_c_johnson@yahoo.com>
If you just need to copy, paste and delete columns of text, look into
the kill-rectangle command within emacs.
If you want a spreadsheet, I would recommend looking into StarOffice. 
It is a full office suite, Micro$oft compatible, runs under linux (as
well as Windoze 98) and best of all is free!  Check out
http://www.stardivision.com if you are interested.

----------------------------------------------------------
From: Luigi Cavallo <cavallo@chemna.dichi.unina.it>
vim (vi linux) should have what you need. It can copy paste and delete
not
only by lines but also by columns. CTRL-v is the keystroke that enters
you
into columns editing. The "man vim" should help.

------------------------------------------------------------
From: "Marcio Cyrillo" <cyrillo@ifi.unicamp.br>
If you don't mind using windows (blagh!),  you can download a piece of
code
I developed: have a look at http://www.ifi.unicamp.br/gsonm/cyrillo and
look
for coledit.

--------------------------------------------------------------
From: Pedro A M Vazquez <vazquez@br.freebsd.org>
The two most flexible tools to format/reformat input and
output files used in computational chemistry are awk and perl.

----------------------------------------------------------------- 
From: Andrea Bernini <andrea@neriserv.chim.unisi.it>
In standard Linux distribution you can find joe. It is a console editor
such as vi but more user-friendly, and it has rectangular block
selection features, search man pages for "rectangular" and "define
block".

-----------------------------------------------------------
From: Dirk Dettmering <dettmer@pc16154.pharmazie.uni-marburg.de>
try kwrite from the KDE project (should come with your favourite
distribution in one of the kde-rpms, otherwise try www.kde.org). This is
my own favourite lightwhight editor: small, fast and you don't have to
remember tons of key combinations! You can mark columns with your mouse!

-------------------------------------------------------------------
From: John McKelvey <jmmckel@attglobal.net>
Boston Buisiness Computing has a Linux version of the DEC EDT+ editor
that does column editing.  [I have been using their products for about
15 years...]

---------------------------------------------------------------------
From: "Wolf-Dietrich Ihlenfeldt"
<Wolf-Dietrich.Ihlenfeldt@CCC.Chemie.Uni-Erlangen.DE>

cut, paste, join. See man pages.--

      -  thermodynamic standards
      -  fluids and fluid mixtures
      -  new approaches to thermodynamics education
      -  all other areas of experimental and theoretical
            thermodynamics.

ICCT-2000  will be held at Dalhousie University, in Halifax, Nova
Scotia, Canada. This is a beautiful location, right on the Atlantic
Ocean at the east coast of Canada. The Lobster Banquet is expected to
be a popular event. There will be an accompanying persons' program.
Accommodation will be available at hotels and in university
dormitories.  The conference will start with registration and a
mixer late on Sunday, and will adjourn on Friday afternoon.  Wednesday
afternoon will be set aside for local scenic tours, included in the
conference fee.

The conference will include plenary lectures, parallel sessions on
specific themes, posters, and an exhibit of thermodynamic equipment,
publications and services.  Between 400 and 600 participants are
expected.  Details concerning plenary lectures and invited speakers
will be announced in the next email bulletin.

All correspondence concerning ICCT-2000 will be carried out by email;
there will be no mailed flyers for this conference.  Although we have
compiled an extensive email database, it is possible that we have
missed potential participants, so we will appreciate it if you could
forward this message to your colleagues.

Further details concerning ICCT-2000 are given at the website,

As far as I know, OpenDX (formerly IBM DX) and AVS were never the same product.Aside from the fact that visual programs look like flow charts in
both cases, they are fundamentally different in every other aspect,
especially at the lower level.
The book "Data Visualization in Molecular Science",  edited
by Jack E. Bowie from Addison Wesley 1995 contains
articles on DX (contributed by myself) an on AVS (by
Joseph Leonard and others) and other programs. It is a bit
outdated already, but gives a very good overview. AVS and DX are
both predated, I believe, by a program called apE (1987)
which no longer exists (D.S. Dyer IEEE CG&A 10 (4) 60-69 1990 ??).

I have been running gaussian on linux for some time with spectacular
performance, if you find the PII optimized blas and use the PGI
compilers.  I have not tried it yet with linda.  We have, however, been
doing parrallel runs on SMP linux boxes with great results as well.

Subject: Toy Tight Binding Programs Available for 2-atom Wurtzite/Diamond 
 Structures
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I've written two toy tight binding programs for wurtzite or diamond
structures with two atoms per unit cell. These are available for free,
under the Gnu Public License, to anyone who wants them. I wrote these as
an educational exercise, and hope that others will find them similarly
useful.

The first program is taken from W.A. Harrison's "Electronic Structure
and the Properties of Solids: The Physics of the Chemical Bond." Dover
Publications, Inc., NY, 1989. The second is taken from D.J. Chadi and
M.L. Cohen, "Tight Binding Calculations of the Valence Bands of Diamond
and Zincblende Crystals." Phys. Stat. Sol. (b) 68, 405 (1975) (which is
what Harrison based his code on).

Both programs are written in Python. Both also assume that the LLNL
numerical extension to Python are installed. I hope this isn't too much
of a limitation for people.

These programs can be downloaded from
http://www.wag.caltech.edu/home/rpm/projects/wurtzite/

Please send corrections, new parameters, and any other questions to
rpm@wag.caltech.edu.

Schrodinger is pleased to announce a one-day workshop on "pKa Prediction 
for Real-World Problems" on February 2, 2000, in Philadelphia, PA.

Abstract

Acidity and basicity have profound effects upon chemical and physical
properties. In the drug discovery process, pKa estimation plays an important
role in predicting absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME)
properties of medicinal compounds. 

The first-principles based pKa Predictor in Jaguar was developed to provide
accurate predictions of pKa while explicitly addressing conformational 
effects. It also handles multiple protonation states in a systematic fashion. 

The seminar will illustrate the synergy among four of Schrodinger's key 
software products: Maestro, MacroModel, Jaguar, and the pKa Predictor itself. 
The morning session will propose general computational strategies, explain 
how to generate conformers with MacroModel and to predict pKa with Jaguar. 
The afternoon session will feature real-world case studies illustrating step-
by-step problem solving techniques for a range of intriguing problems. 

For more information, or to register, please see http://www.schrodinger.com.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact Dr. Bill Glauser at 
Schrodinger [email: billg@schrodinger.com, phone: +1 610 869-0578].
