Dear Aaron,

thanks for your advice. I wonder in which order the orbital contributions
are listed there. E.g. for H, is it 1s(split1) 1s(split2) and so on? Is
there a specific scheme? Also, I would like to calculate the specific
contributions, e.g. for C 2pz. Do I have to add the split contributions and
calculate a mean over all atoms? Does anybody have a "recipe" maybe?

Thanks alot and best regards,
Luk
