MultiWFN and Periodic DFT
Hi,
I know that you have tried to incorporate periodic calculations in MultiWFN. However, it has been restricted to CP2K code. Could you please add a module to the code provides availability of other pseudopotential/full potential LCAO solid DFT codes such as siesta/openmx or FHI-aims/Dmol3?

Re: MultiWFN and Periodic DFT
Unfortunately, I don't have plan to make Multiwfn support other first principle codes.
FHI-aims, Dmol3 and SIESTA are hopeless to be supported by Multiwfn since all of them employ private numerical basis sets.
Multiwfn supports CP2K mainly because of the following advantages
(1) CP2K is very popular and freely available
(2) CP2K is quite fast and robust
(3) CP2K uses Gaussian basis functions like most quantum chemistry programs
