bdfopt

Geometry optimiser of BDF package. This module can be used to find minimal points, saddle points and also conical intersection points. For details of the interface to DLFIND, see source/bdfopt, module/dlfind_module.F90, sys_util/bdf_dlfind_util.F90 for interface.

Current limitations

1. Change of symmetry during optimization is not correctly handled for excited state optimization, because the correct input file needs to be prepared.
