Gabedit is a software program that lets you generate keywords and options, molecule specifications and their input sections for even the most advanced calculation types.The interface is outdated and uses a design reminiscent of Windows ’98 or ’95. Aside from this, the UI is quite intuitive if you happen to have some extensive knowledge of chemistry. Casual users will not actually be able to use it because of the specific language applied.On the left side of the main screen, a list of the recently created projects is presented, while on the right one you can input all the details needed.
