Program SMART has been composed for computation of model atmospheres of hot stars of arbitrary chemical composition and their synthetic spectra, and also for study of different physical processes in stellar atmospheres. Main advantages of SMART are shortness, simplicity, user friendliness and flexibility for study of different physical processes. Lack of subroutines for computing convection and molecular absorption in the present version of SMART means that it is applicable only to effective temperatures exceeding 9000 K. A new pan-spectral method for determination of chemical composition of stellar atmospheres has been proposed. The method is based on a weighted cumulative width of spectral lines for an element or ion studied. We applied this method to find abundances of 12 elements in the atmosphere of chemically peculiar star HD 175640 observed by Castelli and Hubrig (2004). Our results are in good agreement with the results by Castelli and Hubrig, who analyzed observations using software by Kurucz (1993, 1997).
