[Wien] Using Monkhorst mesh for SCF

[Nandan Tandon]

Dear Kevin,

Thank you for your answer. one more detail please.
How can the .kgen file be generated from a user defined .klist?? Since for
tetra the .kgen file is necessary, i want to know how to generate it for a
given k-mesh?

Nandan.

It's the same as using a special mesh for bandstructure plotting, only now you change the mesh before and not after SCF.
