Dear Thomas

Thanks very much. Great, It works well.  I think it will attract more
people to switch from VMD to Pymol. Possibly, since the new version of
VASP have change the format of XDATCAR, a update of VMD plugin may be
needed.

A stupid question: When the pymol read the CHGCAR file, it will
produce a set of data like spin up+down and spin up-down. How can i
access different data in pymol?

Thanks again

Best

Wei-Bing
