Look at the bond valence sum numbers produced by nn. They are are accurate
as anything else if you have done proper minimisations of positions. For
instance, put the below in a file which you make executable and run it. If
positions have not changed just the last line with $file changed to you
directory.


#!/bin/bash
a=`pwd`
file=${a##*/}
echo -2 1.D-5, 20 > Bond_in.tmp
x nn < Bond_in.tmp > /dev/null
rm Bond_in.tmp
#setrmt $file > /dev/null
grep -e Bond $file.*tnn | sed 's/Bond-Valence Sum/BVS/'
