values more than 264 columns

[ucsdmavrl]

Dear ABINIT developers and users,

I have the following problems when running band structure calculations with ABINIT8.08b.

--- !ERROR
src_file: instrng.F90
src_line: 172
mpi_rank: 0
message: |
It is observed in the input file: band.in line number 204,
that more than 264 columns are used.
This is not allowed. Change this line of your input file.
...

This error shows that my input for nband is too long. But what if I do really need this setting, is there any approach to get round this problem?

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben,
I think you can simply do carriage returns and the code will continue to read in the next lines.
All the best,
Eric
