xyz with energies


Just Got Here
Hi everyone! I'm using NWChem for some months now. I'm doing a structure optimization, and each step of the optimization it's saved in .xyz files. All it's running really smooth, however I would like to have the energy in each step, in the comment line on the .xyz file. It's anyway to do this?? Thanks in advance!

You could code it in yourself, but it will take some effort.

src/driver/opt_drv.F line 2631, geom_print_xyz is what prints the xyz file. Replacing

 if (.not. geom_print_xyz(geom, 88) 

with

 if (.not. mol_geom_print_xyz(geom, 88, energy)

should do it. Recompile, relink, and you should be good to go.
