Hi Luca,
It is a rather strange format, and it took me a long time to figure it
out, but by now I think that part of the code is well-tested.
Here is roughly how it works: the section begins with a series of
lists of excluded atoms, and those lists are then assigned to other
atoms by a list of offsets within that first list... Since it is
probably very unclear, let me use an example: if there are 8 atoms in
total and I want to exclude {1, 2} from 3 and {1, 4, 5} from 6, here
is the NNB section I need:
5 !NNB
1 2 1 4 5
0 0 2 2 2 5 5 5
In the case of alchemify, since it is always about excluding set A
from set B, the section always starts with indices of set A, repeated
as many times as set B has atoms. The rest of the section indirectly
says what atoms belong to set B. Not that a different file, excluding
set B from set A, would have the same physical results.
I hope it makes sense...
