-=====Example=====+=====Appetizing Example===== 
 +The ASE provides a very convenient, high level interface to CP2K. It bring about the renown [[w>Python_(programming_language)|Pythonic]] productivity. Running a CP2K calculation can be as easy as this:
 <code bash> <code bash>
-$ export ASE_CP2K_COMMAND=mpirun -n 2 cp2k_shell.popt+$ export ASE_CP2K_COMMAND="mpirun -n 2 cp2k_shell.popt"
 $ python $ python
 >>> from ase.calculators.cp2k import CP2K >>> from ase.calculators.cp2k import CP2K
->>> from ase.structure import molecule+>>> from ase.build import molecule
 >>> calc = CP2K() >>> calc = CP2K()
 >>> atoms = molecule('H2O', calculator=calc) >>> atoms = molecule('H2O', calculator=calc)

 +=====Remote Usage over SSH=====
 +The ASE calculator communicate with the CP2K-shell solely over stdin/stdout pipes. Therefore, one can launch the CP2K-shell on a remote host via ssh. For this the environment variable ''$ASE_CP2K_COMMAND'' has to be setup accordingly:
 +<code bash>
 +export ASE_CP2K_COMMAND="ssh your-compute-host.com \"mpirun -np 2 /path/to/cp2k_shell.popt\""
