• The free, scriptable Gnuplot software is capable of creating presentation-grade quality output, as can be seen at the blog Gnuplot Tricks or, more concisely, at the web page Impossible gnuplot graphs. See the gnu plot commands in the Macports list below.

• A popular alternative is xmgrace. See the xmgr/grace commands in the Macports list below.

Unix Software Packages for Mac

Suggested Downloads

These have been found on macports, but are probably also in the other packages.
You may also need to download xquartz or x11.
These instructions for setting up Macports, then Python through Macports are recommended.

• tree

creates a tree out of the ls command

• openmpi

special compiler

• xpdf

open pdf from the terminal

• dos2unix

convert between old mac, pc, and linux file types.

• gcc47

gfortran, gcc, g++, and similar compilers

• grace

graphing software to use from terminal

• xmgr

older version of grace if it the newerdoes not work
If it prints a lot of uninteresting complaints, use
xmgr 2> /dev/null
to suppress them.

• gnuplot

alternative graphing software to use from terminal
If gnuplot from macports keeps upgrading from version 4 to 5 without you wanting it, you can undo it this way with the full name of whatever gnuplot version you are using instead of the one below:
sudo port activate gnuplot @4.6.5_2+aquaterm+luaterm+pangocairo+wxwidgets+x11

• xclock

analog clock

• openbabel

converts between chemical file types Uninstall aom factory plugins pack v1.5.2 for mac.

• pymol

software for viewing molecules, especially biomolecules

• py27-openbabel

python chemistry related software

• py27-scientific

python scientific related software

• fdupes

checks for duplicate files in your directory system

• py34-numpy
• py34-matplotlib +tkinter

These commands will let you use the python3.4 command to to launch GaussSum 3, mentioned above in Electronic Structure.

• ImageMagick

terminal commands for manipulating photos

• rmtrash

alternative to rm that moves files to Mac's trash

• poppler

gives you the pdfunite command to combine pdf documents, as described at this link.

• xorg-server demeter

software for viewing EXAFS spectra. This may require the use of the following Macport, which should be reinstalled (courtesy, Mikhail Askerka):

• xorg-libXt +flat_namespace

• py27-pip
• py34-pip

These commands will set up pip on your computer without needing to do it outside of Macports as suggested here. Afterwords, you should run the command:
sudo port select --set pip pip27 or sudo port select --set pip pip34 to get it to work. Then for some applications (courtesy, Mikhail Askerka) you may also need to add python modules as shown below:
pip install --upgrade ase
pip install --upgrade numpy scipy matplotlib

To get these python commands to work, adding these export statements to your .bash_profile would help:
export PYTHONPATH=/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages:$PYTHONPATH
export PATH=/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin:$PATH

• py27-pygtk

This Macport will run you run some aspects of ASE which allow for the visualization of solid structures.

Suggested Aliases and Other Additions to your Command Line (comments in bold)

Note: Put these in your ~/.bash_profile file and then use the source command on that to make it active.

alias gasum='python3.4 /Applications/GaussSum-3.0.1/GaussSum.py'
This will run GaussSum for you if you installed python via Macports as described above.
You can also install the previous version of GaussSum and run it by
alias gasum2='python2.7 /Applications/GaussSum-2.2.6.1/GaussSum.py'

alias avo='open -a /Applications/[NameOfApplication].app'
Note: replace '[NameOfApplication]' with the name of the .app file, such as Avogadro, to be able to use this command to open programs from the terminal

alias bc='bc -l'
Note: enables bc to start with full Math available e.g. 1/2 will be 0.5 not 0

alias [firstletterofcommand]old='history grep command tail
Note: replace '[firstletterofcommand]' to make a short shortcut command to find this first command in your history

alias gibbs='grep 'Sum of electronic and thermal Free Energies' '
alias scf='grep 'SCF Done' '
Note: replace 'finds the free energy (top) or electronic energy (bottom) in a Gaussian output file that is the 1st argument after this command

alias graph='for f in *gpt ; do echo $f ; gnuplot < $f ; done ; open *eps'
Note: lets you graph all the Gnuplot files in your folder and open them.

alias ll='ls -lrth'
Note: Our preferred form of the ls command

alias sftp[Server]='sftp [username]@[Server]'
alias to[Server]='ssh [username]@[Server]'
Note: Let's you do the sftp (top) and ssh (bottom) command fast if you replace [username] and [Server]' appropriately

alias siestaE='find . -name *.out -exec egrep -H ''siesta: Total'' {} ;'
Note: Let's you find the final energy in all output files from SIESTA in the current folder and its child folders

alias tst='grep 'Frequencies --' '
Note: Let's you find the frequencies in your Gaussian output file (1st argument)

alias vmd='/Applications/VMD/VMD 1.9.1.app/Contents/vmd/vmd_MACOSXX86'
Note: Let's you open VMD from the terminal if you installed it with the above path

function tab_title {
echo -n -e '033]0;${PWD##*/}007'
}

PROMPT_COMMAND='tab_title ; $PROMPT_COMMAND'
Note: Let's you open new tabs that have the name of the current folder (not full path) in the tab title

PS1=‘hostname`’:$PWD=>'
Note: Has the prompt that precedes your typing in the terminal give the full path to your current folder

export PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:$PATH
Note: Required for MacPorts to work properly

GAUSS is a matrix programming language for mathematics and statistics, developed and marketed by Aptech Systems. Its primary purpose is the solution of numerical problems in statistics, econometrics, time-series, optimization and 2D- and 3D-visualization. It was first published in 1984 for MS-DOS and is currently also available for Linux, macOS and Windows.

Gauss programs are not required to have any particular file extension, although .gss is recommended.^[1]

Examples of Functions Included in Run-Time Library[edit]

• GAUSS has several Application Modules as well as functions in its Run-Time Library (i.e., functions that come with GAUSS without extra cost)
  • Qprog – Quadratic programming
  • SqpSolvemt – Sequential quadratic programming
  • QNewton - Quasi-Newton unconstrained optimization
  • EQsolve - Nonlinear equations solver

GAUSS Applications[edit]

A range of toolboxes are available for GAUSS at additional cost. See https://www.aptech.com/products/gauss-applications/ for complete listing of products.
