[molpro-user] Technical Question

Dear Martin,
FCIDUMP is not meant for actual calculations in this way. It is more of
a debugging & experimenting tool, meant for cases in which the full
integral transformation is trivial(!) compared to what you intend to do
with it afterwards (that is, high-order coupled cluster, FCI-like
treatments, stochastic methods, etc). It is not for routine
calculations.

Note also that fci computes the FULL integral transformation, not only
the active space integrals, as you seem to imply. The only orbitals
which get removed are core orbitals, but non-core closed and virtual
orbitals stay in.

If you need more complex stuff, you could try to hack up your own
integrals. E.g., from fitting integrals via wmme (which is a program
available at my homepage and also comes with some python code for
reading Molpro xml files).

Best wishes,
Gerald
