Multiwfn is a powerful program for realizing electronic wavefunction analysis, which is a key ingredient of quantum chemistry. Multiwfn is free, open-source, high-efficient, very user-friendly and flexible, it supports almost all of the most important wavefunction analysis methods.

Multiwfn is maintained by Tian Lu (卢天) at Beijing Kein Research Center for Natural Sciences (http://www.keinsci.com, 北京科音自然科学研究中心). Multiwfn is always in active development, the original paper is J. Comput. Chem., 33, 580-592 (2012) (corresponding to the very old, completely out-of-date version 2.1.2).

Reporting bug, seeking help or providing suggestion, please post messages on Multiwfn forum (http://sobereva.com/wfnbbs), I always reply any question regarding Multiwfn timely.

To quickly getting started, please check "Multiwfn quick start.pdf" document in Multiwfn binary package.
