I am not familiar with SIESTA, and Multiwfn doesn't support wavefunction of SIESTA.

Hello
how can I using SIESTA code for analyzing ELF. Have any tutorial?
Thanks

I just updated Multiwfn. Now if you set "iuserfunc" in settings.ini to 10000+i, then the ith real space function will be chosen as the user-defined function. Therefore if iuserfunc is set to 10009, then the 9th real space function (ELF) will be considered as the user-defined function.

Hello!

In "quantitative analysis of molecular surface", is there a way to make the electron localization function (ELF) the user-defined function?
In the manual, there are over 100 functions of which none is ELF.
I know there are many ready-to-use user-defined functions that are pertinent to Pauli repulsion, but I wished if ELF specifically was available. I also am aware that I can export cubes of the electron density and ELF then map the later on the electron density isosurface and perform the molecular surface analysis, but for large numbers of molecules this consumes as much as 10 times effort.

Thanks!
