Dear SIESTA users.
I am currently struggling to make constraints to certain atom blocks in
SIESTA. For so, I use *constr.f* modified by nullifying the atomic forces
by including the code line :

*fa(1:3,1:i)=0*

where *i* is the number of atoms I want to constrain. Afterwards I compile
the new siesta file with the modified constr.f in order to use it, but it
seems it doesn't work properly, as atoms still suffer movements even after
constraining them with constr.f.
I don't really understand how *constr.f* works as I may forget something.
Do I need to include anything more in order to make a working constraint,
like for example, rewrite the coordinates with xa?
