[Pw_forum] error on the pseudo wavefunction

Dear Tram Bui,

   Shouldn't you increase the value of 'nns' for the wave functions that 
you want to become 6s-like? This is what I have understood:

  6S 2 0 1.00 0.00 4.30 4.50
  6S 2 0 0.00 0.10 4.00 4.50
  5P 2 1 6.00 0.00 1.60 1.60
  5S 1 0 2.00 0.00 1.40 1.40

The first column is "just" a label, the second one the principal quantum 
number of the _pseudo_ atom: "1 0" in the second and third column means 
node-less s wave function (like 1s of hydrogen), "2 0" has one node (like 
2s of Li), "2 1" is the node-less p wave function (like 2p of oxygen), 
etc.

   Hopefully this helps.
