This manual describes PAMoC, a connected system of programs for retrieving a variety of properties from experimental and theoretical electron charge density distributions. It is designed as a complete reference to all of the program's capabilities. This manual aims to be an exhaustive and concise source of information to help you to become familiar with the application. The PAMoC documentation set is described in this chapter.
This manual is intended for researchers, teachers, and students who use PAMoC to study properties of atoms and molecules.
Throughout the manual the following notations will be used.
Typewriter Font denotes keywords recognized by PAMoC. These have to be typed as shown, but may be in upper or lower case. Keywords which have the same meaning and produce the same action are enclosed in parentheses "()" with a vertical bar "|" as the delimiter, i.e. ( keyword1 | keyword2 | ... | keywordN ). A double vertical bar "||" is used to delimite two mutually exclusive options. Parentheses "( )" can be omitted if no ambiguity occurs. Keywords may require one or more parameters.
<italic> embedded in brackets "< >" is used for parameters and options which should be replaced with actual values. Brackets "< >" usually indicate a set of parameters and options and can be omitted if no ambiguity occurs. Square brackets "[ ]" denote optional keywords and options.
The latest information on PAMoC, including program updates, can be found at the WWW sites
Actually, this is the official web-site of PAMoC.
Hosted by Cloud Cannon, a Dropbox based content menagement system (CMS). Cloud Cannon takes the pain out of uploading and mantaining websites, as it pulls designer web files out of his dropbox. So, any change to this manual will be available on the web in a moment (including errors, of course: the author apologizes in advance for any inconvenience and ensures that he will try to fix that soon).

Hosted by the CNR Institute of Molecular Science and Technologies (ISTM, Milano, Italy) till november 2014, about two years after the author retired from his job at the ISTM (CNR). The PAMoC site was lost during a restyling process of the ISTM web-site which is still far from being completed.
