Dear DFTB+ users,
I finally manage to run waveplot, I was somehow confused. I did not download it as I thought it was embeded in te dftb+ code.
Now I am facing a more complex problem I think.
My system has 424 atoms with PBC active, and if I run the waveplot binary I get the following error:
     WAVEPLOT  0.3
================================================================================

Interpreting input file 'waveplot_in.hsd'

I understand it is a memory problem, but do you have any ideas to solve it?
Thank you very much in advance.
