[Pw_forum] GIPAW pseudopotentials

[Josef Zwanziger]

Hello,
I have been looking at the GIPAW modules in the 4.0cvs pre-release, and while 
I can compile and run the example without problem, it's not clear how to make 
pseudopotentials for GIPAW for other atoms. I notice that the given test 
pseudopotentials, for silicon for example, include blocks of GIPAW specific 
data, but I can't find any corresponding options in the ld1 input files or 
for that matter the ld1 source code that corresponds to these options. Also 
unclear is whether the GIPAW module as currently available works with 
non-norm-conserving data, or currently only with norm-conserving data. Any 
clarification would be helpful.

thanks,
Joe
