Variable Descriptions?

Does there exist a page/file somewhere that has a list of the variables and their descriptions? I've had a look around the Yambo site and I have rifled through the code and thus far have come up empty in my attempts to locate such a document. If such a document exist, can someone tell me where?

Cheers,

Dear danno, Yambo is quote different from any other GPL Many-Body and DFT code in the sense that, as you have surely already realized, input variables are suggested by the code itself when the executable yambo is invoked with some command line option. In addition any variable in the input file is accompanied by a short description.

If you want to have more informations about a special variable you can either ask here in the forum and/or look at the on-line documentation. Bear in mind that the on-line doc will be revised and updated during the summer as in a few month there will be an important updated in the GPL version (with more features added).

Hope I was helpful

Andrea,

Thank you very much, the online documentation stuff was what I was looking for.

Cheers,
