  pot {format} {path}

This command allows APBS to read the electrostatic potential mapped to a mesh. The inputs are maps of the electrostatic potential from a previous calculation. In general, this command will read potential-maps written by write commands in earlier APBS calculations.  NOTE:  this functionality is only available in the current developmental release of APBS.

  NOTE: To use this functionality you must set the bcfl keyword to map. See also: usemap

Arguments for this command are:

format
The format of the potential map. Acceptable values include:
dx
OpenDX format
gz
gzipped (zlib) compressed OpenDX format. Files can be read directly in compressed form.
path
The location of the potential map file.
