1## Support for scripting in Siesta
2
3* Compiling support for the embedded Lua interpreter (-DSIESTA__FLOOK
4 pre-processor option, plus linking to the flook library) enables
5 'internal' scripting of some operations in Siesta using Lua
6 scripts. See the documentation for more information.
7
8* Siesta is interfaced to the [AiiDA simulation
9 framework](https://www.aiida.net), through the use of the
10 [aiida-siesta](https://aiida_siesta_plugin.readthedocs.io) package
11 of plugins and workflows.
12
13* The [ASE (Atomic Simulation
14 Environment)](https://wiki.fysik.dtu.dk/ase/) has Siesta as one of
15 its supported calculators.
16
17* Some old experiments for a python interface to Siesta built on top
18 of ASE can be found in the directory `old-python-interface`.
