Hi guys.

I´m using paratool (from vmd 1.8.6) to obtain charmm parameters to some
ligands. I do everything is explained in the Paratool User's Guide
(http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/plugins/paratool/usersguide.html)
but, when I import the .log file of SPC calculation with Gaussian03
(Hessian->Import Hessian/charge from single point calc.) I have the
following error:

*****************************************

************************************

I saw something like this in the archives of the list, but there, the
problem is with vmd 1.8.5 and is said that this bug were solved in the
CVS version.
Is this really a bug?? Is it solved yet?? Or this can be something I am
doing wrong in paratool?

Thanks for the help.
