CCL:G: Gaussian optmization



 Sent to CCL by: "Johannes Hachmann" [jh * chemistry.harvard.edu]
 Dear Suryanarayanan,
 I'm not sure I understand what you want to do, but you can use the
 NoSymmetry keyword to suppress reorientation into the standard coordinate
 system.
 Best wishes over to Bremen,
 Johannes
