This page collects together various bit of code I have written and installed in TCM, and after which people sometimes ask with a view to installing them elsewhere. The TCM Group is/was responsible for much bigger and better academic software packages, such as Casino, CASTEP, ONETEP and others.
There is no warranty or statement of fitness for purpose associated with any of the code on this page. If you wish to use them, it is up to you to determine whether they are fit for the purpose you have in mind. Most of them are unmaintained. None of them is in any way endorsed by this University. No guarantees of support are offered either.
The larger bits of code on this page are offered under the GPL, and clearly state this. The smaller pieces are so small as to be, in my opinion, unworthy of any restrictive licence. If the GPL is unsuitable for the use you wish, note that the author retains full rights to the code, so it may be possible to negotiate different terms with him.
Converts from pnm/bmp/gif/jpeg/png to eps/ps/pdf. Major features are that jpegs are converted without decompressing and recompressing, that stdin is accepted for input for all file types, and that some effort is made to make the resulting eps as small as possible. Originally designed for use with LaTeX, it has many other applications. Has its own download page.
This is a converter for CASTEP's check files, and can extract charge and spin density, wavefuctions, or simply atomic positions. For more information see the check2xsf website.
A simple command-line interface to the spglib crystal symmetry finder. It borrows much code from check2xsf, and is more fully described on a dedicated cellsym page.
