That was the original intension for using the code: speed.
I had downloaded their binary file (Linux x86-64) and was running it on Debian
Lenny 64bit (Intel i7 quadcore) machine. The input file was a Gaussian
calculation and I thus generated the cube file with Gaussian. The calculation
itself was ok, I was using the G03 generated wfn file as the input file for
the AIM2000 program which worked well (same calculation).
So, assuming their compiled binary file is ok and assuming the calculation was
ok, the problem could be a missgenerated cube file. Maybe I should look into
it again now that I got a bit more time on my hands.
All the best from Glasgow!
