I will look into this. I worked a bit on the VRML exporter today -- got
isosurface displaying properly, with colors and smoothing, so that should
be most of it there; as for Maya, it's great that someone is interested in
this -- completely user driven.  I'd like to see a few Maya files for small
surfaces created using other programs. No promises, but it shouldn't be too
big a deal since the other exporters are doing it already.

That's an interesting link, Robert.

BTW, it is micromouse.ca, not .com
and just $20 !

It is possible that exporting to VRML can be used and then that file opened
with AccuTrans3D. I've been using this to convert to Collada and see a Maya
.ma export on the save as menu. I don't have a Maya viewer either so not
sure if it works! You can try AccuTrans3D free for 30 days and the licence
is US $30, see www.micromouse.com

The VRML surface exports have been working well for what I need, although
exporting orbitals with phase colours on seems to lose the colour. (Pretty
easy to put back again)

Dear 'nobody',

The Maya export only supports atoms and bonds.
I did some work on exporing surfaces to VRML, so we might give it a try if
you can provide documentation about the format, guidance on how to do it 
and a test system (I do not have any Maya viewers).
