[DFTB-Plus-User] example input for Multiplicity != 1 and SpinConstants

[jhyapguru gurujhyap]

Upon addition of Spin Constants from the Manual to the dftb_in.hsd file,
the execution stops with the error ...

I entered the data in the format represented on page 17 of the DFTB+ 1.2
User Manual.

**** error message ****
ERROR!
-> Superfluous data found.
Path: dftb_in/Hamiltonian/DFTB/SpinConstants/S
Line: 106-113 (File: dftb_in.hsd)

**** Relevant Input ****
  SpinPolarisation = Colinear {
    UnpairedElectrons = 2
  }

  SpinConstants = {
    H = {
      # Wss
      -0.072
    }
    C = {
      # Wss    Wsp     Wps     Wpp
      -0.031  -0.025  -0.025  -0.023
    }
    N = {
      # Wss    Wsp     Wps     Wpp
      -0.033  -0.027  -0.027  -0.026
    }
    O = {
      # Wss    Wsp     Wps     Wpp
      -0.035  -0.030  -0.030  -0.028
    }
    S = {
      # Wss     Wsp     Wsd
       -0.021  -0.017  -0.000
      # Wps     Wpp     Wpd
       -0.017  -0.016  -0.000
      # Wds     Wdp      Wdd
       -0.000  -0.000   -0.080
    }
  }

What am I doing wrong? Also, would it be possible to have a working example
of an input?

Thanks!
