[Pw_forum] evaluating band structure

[Dae Kwang Jun]

Dear Muhammad Adnan Saqlain,

You can use the program plotband.x. Running this program in a single core
will give you a plot in ps and xmgrace. The command should be something
like /path/to/plotband.x yourfile.bands.dat. From there you can specify
energy range, etc.  Also, if I recall correctly, executing bands.x should
give you a dat.gnu file. However, I am not sure since which version of QE
this is done. The dat.gnu file can be plotted with gnuplot. Or you can copy
the contents of the gnu.dat file to excel and plot/manipulate it. Note that
the energies in the dat.gnu are in Ry, not eV.
