The ADF-GUI modules

ADFjobs - mangages ADF jobs.
ADFinput - builds the input for an ADF calculation.
ADFview - displays 3-D (volume) data, such as electron densities, orbitals, electrostatic potentials.
ADFspectra - shows spectra calculated by ADF, like IR and excitation spectra.
ADFmovie - follows geometry steps of geometry optimizations, IRC calculations, etc.

Run It in Kimik

The licences for all the adfviews are in kimik001, so the only place where you can run it is there. So first thing to do is: ssh -X kimik001
