Dear Stefano,
Thanks a lot for your reply. I would like to learn how the removal of an 
electron from a supercell of 17 atoms (with one Mn at the centre) would solve my 
purpose of finding the (doner)energy. Is it that the hole will get localised on 
Mn.
Secondly, what is the "compensating gellium" (mentioned in input_PW.HTML doc)to 
remove the divergence and how is this incerted. Your help is highly appriciated.
Thanking you.

just do it. run the the code with one electron less, and adopt the usual 
precautions to deal with a charged cell. SB
