Elegant users forum

Hey everybody,

I would like to tell elegant, that it should not print out anything into the terminal while running. I'm talking about the command lines of the *.ele file as well as the "computed value for ..." stuff corresponding to the lattice. It should just be quiet. Is this possible? Thanks,

Thorsten

Thorsten,

This can be done by putting the following at the top of the command file:

&global_settings
echo_namelists = 0,
log_file = "/dev/null"
error_log_file = "/dev/null",
&end

The /dev/null is for Linux. I'm not sure what the null device would be for windows or mac.

You probably want to ask for a semaphore file to be created so you can verify that the run works:
&run_setup
...
semaphore_file = %s.done
...
&end

--Michael

/dev/null can be used for mac as well.
NUL can be used for Windows.
