<a name="idm3"></a><h3>INTRODUCTION</h3>
<blockquote><pre>
<b>Input data format:</b> { } = optional, [ ] = it depends, | = or
All quantities whose dimensions are not explicitly specified are in
RYDBERG ATOMIC UNITS
<b>BEWARE:</b> TABS, DOS &lt;CR&gt;&lt;LF&gt; CHARACTERS ARE POTENTIAL SOURCES OF TROUBLE
<b>neb.x DOES NOT READ FROM STANDARD INPUT !</b>
There are two ways for running a calculation with neb.x:
(1) specifying a file to parse with the <b>./neb.x -inp</b> or <b>./neb.x -input</b>
command line option.
(2) or specifying the number of copies of PWscf inputs with the <b>./neb.x -input_images</b>
<b>For case (1)</b> a file containing special KEYWORDS (aka SUPERCARDS) has to be
written (see below). These KEYWORDS tell the parser which part of the file
contains the neb specifics and which part contains the energy/force engine
input (at the moment only PW). After the parsing, different files are
generated: neb.dat, with the neb specific variables, and a set of pw_*.in
PWscf input files, i.e., one for each input position. All options for a
single SCF calculation apply.
The general structure of the file to be parsed is:
==================================================
<b>BEGIN</b>
<b>BEGIN_PATH_INPUT</b>
... neb specific namelists and cards
<b>END_PATH_INPUT</b>
<b>BEGIN_ENGINE_INPUT</b>
...pw specific namelists and cards
<b>BEGIN_POSITIONS</b>
<b>FIRST_IMAGE</b>
...pw ATOMIC_POSITIONS card
<b>INTERMEDIATE_IMAGE</b>
...pw ATOMIC_POSITIONS card
<b>LAST_IMAGE</b>
...pw ATOMIC_POSITIONS card
<b>END_POSITIONS</b>
... other pw specific cards
<b>END_ENGINE_INPUT</b>
<b>END</b>
<b>For case (2)</b> neb.dat and all pw_1.in, pw_2.in ... should be already present.
Structure of the NEB-only input data (file neb.dat):
====================================================
<b>&amp;PATH</b>
...
<b>/</b>
[ <b>CLIMBING_IMAGES</b>
