[CPMD-list] Ultrasoft Pseudopotentials

[M.T.Storr]

Hi,

I have a somewhat bizarre question relating to CPMD.
I have recently downloaded CPMD and notice that it can use ultrasoft 
pseudopotentials. I am also awaiting the release of the latest version of 
Castep. I am aware of calculations using Castep/USP's on my system that 
give good results.
I would however like to try to carry out some calculations using CPMD due 
to the nature of its availability. I was therefore wondering if CPMD will 
read the USP's that come with Castep or if anyone has a way to convert 
them.
Sorry for the obscure question.

Thanks

Mark
