Example: Analytic Frequencies: CH4

# In this example we perform a geometry optimization immediately followed by
# calculation of frequencies. This is done by setting the task to  
# GeometryOptimization and by requesting the normal modes in Properties block

# Note: when using this feature, one might improve the precision if one uses
# NumericalQuality Good. In order to save time this is not done in this example.
