Re: [ESPResSo-users] Espresso input/output with Python

[Kai Szuttor]

Hi Michael,

please use the python branch if you want the latest features of the
python interface. There is an in-core implementation of the hdf5 format
which is documented and also has a sample script.
Please keep in mind that you have to install the hdf5-plugin for VMD
available on github in order to be able to read the written h5 files of
espresso.

As far as I know the imd stuff is not ported and won't be ported to
python, instead we have an openGL and mayavi visualization (also
available in the python branch).

Cheers,

Kai
