Dear Carlo and Salvador,

I am using the following lines to write a *WFSX file for a chosen interval
of energies (using siesta-3.0-b):

COOP.Write   true
WFS.EnergyMin -9.40 eV
WFS.EnergyMax -1.00 eV

(e.g. energies (eigenvalues) between -9.4 and -1.0 eV).

The other method that also works, as Guangping wrote:

WaveFuncKPointsScale pi/a
%block WaveFuncKPoints
0.0 0.0 0.0  from 150 to 160
%endblock WaveFuncKpoints

The same results with WriteWaveFunctions either true of false. Longoutput
true or false does not seem to make a difference (I use Longoutput true as
default, but WFSX file is not written, unless I specifically request it as
above).

Regards,

Natalia
