Maho Nakata eb150f33f7 GAMESS is freely available ab-initio molecular orbital
calculation program calculates energy, molecular structure,
vibrational frequencies from the basic principle of quantum mechanics.

A site license for GAMESS is available at no cost to both academic
and industrial users. Please refer
http://wwwmsg.fi.ameslab.gov/GAMESS/dist.menu.html
for details.

We also included simple launcher called `gamess'
for your convenience. You don't set any environment variable
to run gamess. Just type
% gamess <somefile.inp>
is enough.

I also recived an e-mail from Mike Schmidt <mike@si.fi.ameslab.gov>
as my inquery.
