[Pw_forum] Type of pseudo potential using input_dft

[Stefano de Gironcoli]

the variable input_dft overwrites the exchange and correlation 
functional used in the calculation.
It does not change any other detail of the pseudopotential file.
ncpp/uspp/paw describe how the pseudoatom mimic the orthogonality to the 
(removed) core electrons.
This is feature is not modified by input_dft
