64+ - ** v8.13.0** — ** Three NWChem functionals that could never run.**
65+ CAM-B3LYP and LC-wPBE emitted NWChem's ` cam ` parameters on the ` xc `
66+ line, where it is a directive of its own, so every job chosen with
67+ either died on ` xc_input: invalid format ` ; plain ` hcth147 ` is
68+ deprecated and fatal in NWChem 7.x, which wants ` hcth147@tz2p ` . Found
69+ by running all 55 functionals the dialog offers against the installed
70+ NWChem rather than reading the documentation. The same sweep added
71+ ** dispersion corrections** (Grimme D1, D2, D3 and D3(BJ)) — D1 and D2
72+ work with every functional, D3 and D3(BJ) only with some, and asking
73+ for one that is unsupported aborts the job, so the pairing is now
74+ rejected up front with an explanation instead. Also fixes the
75+ ** Initial Source combo opening blank** in the Gaussian geometry
76+ dialogs for CI and semi-empirical theories, where its default index
77+ pointed past the end of a shorter list, and NWChem's B3LYP shortcut
78+ selecting the wrong functional for the same reason. The dialog test
79+ suite now catches both shapes — a combo left with no selection at all,
80+ and ` cam ` run onto the ` xc ` line — and no longer reports findings in
81+ retired codes.
82+
6483- ** v8.12.0** — ** The Gateway window is gone** : ` ecce ` opens the
6584 Organizer directly, which becomes the front door (New Structure on
6685 File; Register Machines, Machine Browser and Periodic Table on Tools).
