Dear Prof. Tomas,
Yes, it might be a problem of misplaced of all three scripts.
Not its running for scf and each scf cycle is running triply.
A new issue what I observed is (before scf starts):
*mv: mv: cannot stat 'A*.scf'cannot stat 'A*.scf': No such file or
directoryBefore running cellShapeOrtho hiddenBox now contains: : No such
file or directory*
I sent the initialized tar file in your personal account (as here it cannot
be sent).
Thank you very much.
Bhamu
