v.5.27.1

A small update

Fixed the interpretation of user provided vectors in expressions like
variable real, vector, dim:[3]
eval vector[1]+vector[2]

v.5.27.0

Fixed the molecule issue in v5.26.1
Molecules were not recognized properly at a read internal.
In addition, read was changed to recognize properly if the first atom of
a molecule is outside the first unit cell.

Finished the 'reset' commands in all menus and the global reset.

Minor Bug fixes (from v.26.1)

An error status "set error, live" still caused MPI termination.

DISCUS
RMC Corrected setting of minimum distance constraints at 'set mdis' command

Several BUG fixed related to molecules, (read, save, replace)
Improved restoration of old structure in DECO if deco failed.

Set more stringent control on teh application of periodic boundary conditions and the
quick/exact calculation mode see purge, deco, domain, stack and the commands
'set crystal', set mode' in 'chem'

v.5.26.0

Moderate update and BUG fixes

DIFFEV
The compute:serial option did not allow to use two successive "run_mpi" commands prior to the next 'compare' command. Fixed so that command like this are possible
run_mpi discus, dis.discus.mac, repeat:REF_NINDIV, compute:serial
run_mpi kuplot, kup.diffev.mac, repeat:1, compute:serial
compare

DISCUS
Added export options to write:
CIF minimum cif file
RMCprofile Version 6 and 7 file formats
VASP write the POSCAR file

All fourier: Atom types for which no atoms are in the structure, automatically get a scattering length/atomic form factor of zero. This eliminates the need to assign a scattering length to these (dummy) atoms. Previously you had to use the 'scat' command within the 'fourier' menu to do this.

v.5.26.1

Careful PLEASE wait, a bug related to molecule read needs to be fixed!
