[QE-users] Missing EOF in the input file causes confusing error message from pp.x chdens

[连云龙]

Dear QE developers,

I was trapped in an error from pp.x saying that 
-----
Message from routine chdens:
namelist plot not found or invalid, exiting
-----
but eventually this error is caused by a missing EOF after the final "/" in the input file.
(I found solution here : https://www.mail-archive.com/users@lists.quantum-espresso.org/msg36019.html )


To make the program easier to use for beginners, could you please revise the line 
-----
CALL infomsg ('chdens', 'namelist plot not found or invalid, exiting')
-----
in .../qe-6.6/PP/src/chdens_module.f90 to give some more hints ? Strictly speaking, a missing EOF is not a problem of the content of the card "&PLOT", but this line will be triggered by such an error and the error message is, at least to me, misleading.


Have a good day,
Yunlong
