CCL:G: Summary) Non-GUI programs

 Hello, CCLers.
 I sent following question last week. It was concerning the "old-style"
 MO program.

 Subject: CCL: Non-GUI programs
 
 I'm looking for non-GUI molecular orbital calculation programs. Resent MO
 programs have rich GUI functions. This is not better to me. Because of two
 reasons as follows:
 1) I want to check the calculation progress precisely with text-style output.
   But GUI forbids it.
 2) I would like to develop the original output editor by Flash-movie.
 Does anyone know such "old-style" available free program ?
 I don't care that it is EHMO or ab-initio.
 And I don't care that it runs on MS-DOS(my PC is Windows).
 
 Here is the summary.
 *** I'm sorry. I forgot to write that I have Gaussian98W !
 *** And I forgot to write the phrase: "non-GUI program which except for
 G98W."

 PCGAMESS and  WINGAMESS
 Come to mind immediately, for a Windows PC - and are free.
 Dalton, PCGAMESS, GAMESS, MOLPRO, MPQC, NWChem, and Orca come to mind for a
 Linux machine - and are free, except for MOLPRO.
 
Jaguar and ADF can probably be run from the command line too. You probably don't need to use the GUI interface. But these cost big bucks.

 Please consider using MOPAC 7.2 from
 HTTP://OpenMOPAC.net

 Among the others, Gaussian is also available for Windows and the
 academic site-wide license seems to be a good deal.
 Good luck,
