Right, it is a general problem. If you use a GUI, then it is relatively easy to ask the user to indicate all files which belong to the calculation; but if you just do it non-interactively in OpenBabel then just looking e.g. at a .log file of the same name in the same directory might be error-prone if it belongs to a different calculation. For MOLPRO, this might be the case if you did a geometry calculation before and now do a single-point calculation at a different geometry using the same input filename - the .log will still belong to the old calculation.
