Is it possible to update the header for sections in the .save file so
that it is consistent with the current version of the code.
I'm speaking of the variable 'file_version' written at the start of each
section in the wave function using:
write(iuni) twrite, file_version, section_name
This is set in the file Modules/io_base.f90
It has remained frozen with the value 202 (I'm guessing since this
version of the code).
Since there have been some changes in the data dumped in various
sections - in particular section_name='pseudo' - it would be easier to
know this in advance by checking the file_version.
Also, to prevent the code from reading older save files with different
data structures, the existing consistency checks for 'file_version'
would then have more meaning.
