Hi,
  I've posted test builds of the CHARMM PBEQ map reader for most
of the supported VMD platforms for interested parties to test out:
  http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/alpha/pbeq/

Follow the instructions in the README to try it out on your
locally installed VMD. (requires VMD 1.8.4 or VMD 1.8.5)
I posted both the plugins and a VMD saved state to exercise the plugin
using the 1kdx test structure that Wonpil sent me instructions on
generating. I used a "Surf" surface in the example as that ships with
VMD, but you can also color MSMS surfaces, VDW, or any other space filling
representation by potential if you like.

There's an ABPS example here for more info on how to use the potential
map to color various representations:

Let me know if you find any bugs or have questions or suggestions.

Thanks,
  John Stone
