[Pw_forum] Silent Calculations

[Miguel Martínez]

Dear Eyvaz,

Thanks for your answer. The only times I use unshifted grids are for
electron-phonon calculations and for hexagonal (trigonal) lattices. So
far, shifted meshes in phonons have worked fine for me, and they are
used extensively in the examples that run ph.x (02, 14, 15 and 24 at
least). Maybe npool isn't supported in raman calculations, but the code
doesn't complain. I don't know.
