INCAR

The INCAR file is the central input file of VASP. It determines "what to do and how to do it". There is a relatively large number of parameters that may be set by means of tags in the INCAR file. Most of these parameters have convenient defaults, and a user unaware of their meaning should not change any of the default values.

Lines with tabs are not properly read by VASP, please avoid using them in the INCAR.
