Hi Norman & Salvatore,
I also thought about reading in the .xsc file but that would slow down the
simulation. Fortunately, the cell vectors do not change drastically - and
precision is
unnecessary in my case- therefore lowering too much restartfreq is not
needed.
Norman can you give an example of using the output command within a
jobscript file? I don't understand how you can write restart files more
frequently than restartfreq does.
thanks,
Thomas
