Has anybody solved this one?

Gaussian computes an  IRC by starting at the transition state  (frame 1)   and 
following the IRC down to a rest in one direction (lets say  frame 25),  then 
starting again from the geometry of frame  1 (this will now be numbered 26) and 
computing the IRC in the other direction, down to say  frame  51.

So to display a smooth IRC (one capable of palindromic reversal), one needs to 
load the frames in the order:

51 > 27 > 1 > 25 (this avoids repeating 26, which is the same as  1).

Unless  I missed it,  I do not think the frame command can be used to set up 
this sequence?  Can anyone enlighten me?

I would point out that it is not unusual to compute  IRCs with a total of 
perhaps  400 frames, and loading and animating these frames is going to be a 
tough ask of  JSmol (and possibly  Jmol as well). Perhaps one should not try 
IRCs with so many frames at all?
