== How to... use gaussview directly on the HPC ==

In case you are a gussview user, and would like to have a look at your  calculations without copying them back to your local computer, you can add the line 
<code>module load gaussian</code>
to your '~/.bash_profile' file on the HPC. I personally have

<code>module load gaussview

module load gaussian

module load gnuplot</code>

but that is your choice. These commands provide access to the respective software packages from your shell. I use a few of the gaussian commands (not gaussian itself of course) and gnuplot directly from the shell. have a look at ''module avail'' to see if there is anything you need.

Now log out and log back in.

If you have MacOS 10.5 installed you just have to type ''gaussview [filename.log]'' in any SSH session to open gaussview. If you have MacOS 10.4, it has to be a xterm session (There might be a way around this restriction, but as I have a 10.5 here, I currently can not test it).
