charge {format} {path}

This command allows APBS to read the fixed (molecular) charge density function mapped to a mesh. The inputs are maps of charge densities; these values have units of e_c Å^-2, where e_c is the electron charge. In general, this command will read charge-maps written by write commands in earlier APBS calculations. Arguments for this command are:

format

The format of the charge map. Acceptable values include:

dx

OpenDX format

gz

gzipped (zlib) compressed OpenDX format. Files can be read directly in compressed form.
