[Smeagol-discuss] Spin polarised calculations

Dear Lianheng,

  there should be no problems with spin-polarized calculations, indeed
we usually perform spin-polarized calculations. In older versions of the
code there was a bug, so that sometimes the .TRC file was empty, but
this was fixed in the current distribution version. If you still have
this problem, please send me the full set of input files, and I will run
this system to see why it does not print the .TRC file properly.

Cheers,

 Ivan
