[molpro-user] Many-body expansion module in molpro 2012.1 / input file format

[Andy May]

Richard,

MONFILE is read in lines 31-53 of src/mbe/imc_util.F90, so taking a 
glance at those lines might help to see what is required. Apologies I 
can't be more specific; I've no detailed knowledge about mbe module.

Best wishes,

Andy
