    <p>Refer to section "5.1.4 Job control for iteration (run_lapw or

    <p>If you want to reset the calculation from the beginning, use
      run[sp]_lapw without the -NI switch.  It should show a message
      telling you it is automatically removing the *.broyd.* files.  The
      "-i NUMBER" switch can be added to change the default maximum
      number of iteration from that of 40.<br>
    </p>
    <p>If you want to continue the calculation, use "run[sp]_lapw -NI",
      which keeps the *.broyd.* files.</p>
    <p>If you need to continue the calculation from a specific program,
      add the "-s PROGRAM" switch.</p>
