======================================================
chemtools_: Python toolbox for Computational Chemistry
======================================================

Chemtools is a set of modules that is intended to help with more
advanced computations using common electronic structure programs.

The main to goal was to enable convenient `basis set <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_set_%28chemistry%29>`_ manipulations, including designing and optimizing exponents of basis sets. To achieve that there are several modules abstracting various functionalities.

Currently there is support optimizing basis set (or doing general computations) with:

* Dalton_
* Gamess-US_
* MolPro_
* PSI4_
