This program is to calculate the electronic structure of transition
METAL COMPLEXES BY THE ORIGINAL METHOD WHICH TAKES INTO ACCOUNT LOCAL
correlations between the d-electrons of the metal atom and resonance
INTERACTIONS BETWEEN THE D-ELECTRONS AND THE LIGAND ELECTRONS.

   (a) CARTESIAN COORDINATES  ( I-th card )

       N(I)   LST(I)    X(I)    Y(I)    Z(I)      FLAG(I)

    ** N(I) - symbol or atomic number of the atom

       The following elements are available:
       H, He,
       Li,Be,B, C, N, O, F, Ne,
       Na,Mg,Al,Si,P, S, Cl,Ar,
       K, Ca,
       ##### Sc,Ti,V, Cr,Mn,Fe,Co,Ni,Cu,Zn, #####
             Ga,Ge,As,Se,Br,XX
       Numbers 1-35, XX(36) - dummy atom

    ** LST(I) - number of non standard valence orbitals (0-3)

       LST is not vanishing if non standard basis is used in the SCF
       calculation. The standard basis is described in the GEOMO guide.

    ** X(I),Y(I),Z(I) - cartesian coordinates of the atom

    ** FLAG(I) = 36 if I=1 and nothing otherwise


   (b) INTERNAL COORDINATES ( see AMPAC guide )

    N(I) LST(I) GEO(1,I) GEO(2,I) GEO(3,I) NA(I) NB(I) NC(I)

 ** N(I) = the atomic number of atom /I/.
         = 36, then the I-th atom is a dummy atom used
               only to simplify the definition of the
               molecular geometry.
         = LITER, the symbolic name of the element

  ( Dummy atom may be specified as XX )

 ** GEO(1,I) = the internuclear separation (in angstroms)
               between atoms NA(I) and (I).

 ** GEO(2,I) = the angle NB(I):NA(I):(I) input in degrees;

 ** GEO(3,I) = the angle between vectors NC(I):NB(I) and NA(I):(I)
               input in degrees;

    Much of this data is not included for the first three atoms:
    ATOM1  input N(1) only.
    ATOM2  input N(2) and GEO(1,2): separation between atoms 1 and 2
    ATOM3  input N(3), GEO(1,3) and GEO(2,3): separation between atoms
    2 and 3 and angle ATOM1:ATOM2:ATOM3
