Compatibility with QE 5.4.0

Post by yeoh »

Dear moderator,

May I know whether the latest version of EPW i.e. EPW-4.1 is compatible with Quantum Espresso 5.4.0?

Thanks

Dear Yeoh,

Although I did not explicitly tested that, I'm pretty sure its not compatible.

EPW has been modify to cope with some of the modifications made in QE 6.

Dear Dr. Samuel,

Can I have a copy of the documentation for EPW 5.4 input?
It would be very helpful as I am currently running QE 5.4 and unable to install QE 6.0

Thanks

Dear Yeoh,

Unfortunately, I keep no track of prior online documentation.
However, the documentation should be quite similar. You can look for the list of changes for each version in http://epw.org.uk/Main/About

I still strongly recommend using the new version as important bugs have been fixed (see the list in the link above).

Best,

Samuel
