Dear (Tran)Siesta users,

Could you indicate me please a more practical guide on how to setup
realistic transport calculations with transiesta. I've read ch. 8 from
Siesta User Guide, browsed the examples contained in  the siesta(-3.2-pl-5)
distribution, slides from the TAU workshop 2014, visited
http://dipc.ehu.es/frederiksen/tstutorial/index.php/Exercises_TS_School_2009
(the last misses just "Starting up a 'real' problem of interest...'). but
still have problem how to prepare the input files for realistic
calculations: how to add a few metal atoms at the ends of the molecule to
build an extended molecule (should it be done typing in the metal atom
coordinates by hand?), how to prepare files for electrodes (other than
typing in the coordinates e.g. of a,b,c for Au(111)). Is there a more
practical guide, or full sets of input files to be downloaded for classical
cases (e.g. Au-BDT-Au)?

Many thanks in advance,
Ticu C.
