Dear Pwscf users,

I have a shallow acceptor defect with an unpaired electron (in a  
semiconductor)
  that so far I have treated using smearing.
However, to test the influence of the filling, I
would like to set the occupation of the Kohn-Sham levels
in the following manners:

  1 - specify that band number # is filled/empty in all the k-points;
and
  2 - specify that band number # is empty at gamma, but filled at all
the other k-points

I would be very greatful if someone could suggest me a way of specifying this,
since I could not find a suitable option in the manual.

Thank you for your attention.
