Hi,

I'm trying to calculate an ESP surface using NWChem. I am having a hard time reading the plt file written by task esp. I had assumed that this is a gOpenMol format file, however neither gOpenMol, VMD, or molekel will read this file.

The file is human readable, with this format:

     3      3

gOpenMol plt files are machine readable, so I have to assume that this is actually a different file format. Is there a program that is able to read NWChem plt files?

Thanks,
Chris
