LH5 = [logical]
Default: LH5 = .FALSE. 

Description: LH5 determines whether the output is written to the legacy files (CHGCAR, CHG, WAVECAR) or the vaspwave.h5 file. Hence, setting LH5=.TRUE. will suppress legacy file output all together. Whether or not the charge density or wave functions are written to vaspwave.h5 is then determined by setting LCHARG and LWAVE accordingly.
