:alt: PyPi VERSION

A SEAMM plug-in to setup, run and analyze semiempirical calculations
with MOPAC.

This plug-in provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for setting up
and running simulations using the semiempirical quantum chemistry code
MOPAC_.

* Free software: BSD license
* Documentation: https://molssi-seamm.github.io/mopac_step/index.html
* Code: https://github.com/molssi-seamm/mopac_step

.. _MOPAC: http://openmopac.net

Features
--------

* Single-point energies
* Structural optimization
* IR and Raman vibrational frequencies
* Temperature dependent thermodynamic functions
* Results can be stored in flowchart variables or tables_.

seamm-mopac Docker image
------------------------
There is a Docker image available for the SEAMM MOPAC plug-in for running mopac. It is
available at the Github Container Registry (ghcr.io) as

.. code-block:: bash

ghcr.io/molssi-seamm/seamm-mopac:

Where is the explicit version tag for the desired image. The tag `latest` is
quite confusing, and does not mean the latest version of the image, so we recomend using
explcit versions rather than `latest`.

The container can also be run standalone with the following command:

.. code-block:: bash

docker run --rm -v $PWD:/home ghcr.io/molssi-seamm/seamm-mopac: ?mopac ?

where `` is the input file for the MOPAC calculation. By default, mopac is
run using the input file `mopac.dat`. The output files will be written to the current
directory. The `--rm` option removes the container after it exits, and the `-v` option
mounts the current directory to the `/home` directory in the container.
