Hi Erik,
Thank you for the observation. Actually I would not mind having the 
reciprocal space potential, as could calculate direct space rather a bit 
tediously. And am only interested in Electrostatics so if I am not wrong 
I dont need the 1,4 interactions. Any suggestions on how to get the 
reciprocal space contribution that are calculated on the grids in pme.c?

thanks,
Anjan
