About:
wxMacMolPlt is a cross-platform graphical user interface designed specifically for preparing, submitting, and analyzing computational chemistry calculations with the GAMESS program. It provides a visual environment for building molecular structures, setting up complex input files, and visualizing output data like orbitals and vibrational modes. This tool significantly streamlines the workflow for quantum chemistry researchers by replacing manual input file editing with an intuitive visual interface.
Key Features:
  • Interactive 3D molecular builder and editor
  • Graphical setup for GAMESS input parameters and job scripts
  • Visualization of molecular orbitals, vibrational modes, and geometry optimization paths
  • Cross-platform support (macOS, Windows, Linux)
Use Cases:
  • Building and visualizing molecular systems for quantum chemistry calculations
  • Generating input files for GAMESS without manual editing
  • Analyzing and interpreting GAMESS output data visually
Alternatives:
  • Avogadro – General-purpose molecular editor with broader format support, but less specialized for GAMESS workflows
  • GaussView – Commercial GUI for Gaussian, not compatible with GAMESS
