			LAMMPS Input Commands</H2>
			<P>
			<A HREF="README.html">Return</A> to top-level of LAMMPS documentation.</P>
			<P>
			This page contains a complete list of valid LAMMPS inputs. It will be
			easiest to understand if you read it while looking at sample input
			files such as those in the examples directory. </P>
			<P>
			The input file of commands is read by LAMMPS, one line at a time. Each
			command causes LAMMPS to take some action. Usually it simply causes
			some internal variable(s) to be set. Or it may cause a file to be read
			in or a simulation to be run. In general, commands can be listed in any
			order, although some commands require others to have been executed
			previously. </P>
			<P>
			LAMMPS continues to read successive lines from the input command file
			until the end-of-file is reached which causes LAMMPS to terminate. Thus
			new simulations can be run or current simulations continued by simply
			specifying additional commands in the input command file. </P>
			<P>
			The next section of this page gives an example of each command, some of
			which can be specified in multiple styles. Typically the commands take
			one or more parameters. The keyword for each command should begin in
			the leftmost column and all characters in the command and its
			parameters should be in lower-case. Parameters can be separated by
			arbitrary numbers of spaces and/or tabs (so long as the command fits on
			one line). The remainder of the line after the last parameter is
			ignored.</P>
			<P>
			The final section of this page gives a more detailed description of
			each command with its associated parameters. It also lists the default
			parameters associated with each command. When performing a simulation,
			you only need specify a particular command if you do not want to use
			the default settings.</P>

			which can be omitted if all the settings are made via "nonbond coeff"

			a "Nonbond Coeffs" entry only contains one set of coefficients for each

			file is binary to enable exact restarts
			do not have to restart on same # of processors, but can only do exact

			when restart file is read, warnings are issued if certain parameters
			in the restart file do not match current settings (e.g. newton flag,
			dimension, periodicity, units) - this usually indicates an error
			the restart file stores all nonbond and many-body styles and coefficients,
			so reading the file will overwrite any current settings
			the restart file stores the constraint assignments for each atom, but

			for rescale style, temperature is controlled by explicitly rescaling

			for rescale style, rescaling is only done if current temperature is
			beyond the target temperature plus or minus the window value
			for replace style, Gaussian RNs from the Marsaglia RNG are used
			for langevin style, uniform RNs from the Marsaglia RNG are used
			for replace and langevin styles, the seed is used to initialize the
			Marsaglia RNG, on successive runs the RNG will just continue on
			for replace and langevin styles, generated RNs depend on # of processors
			so will not get same answers independent of # of processors
			for replace and langevin styles, RNG states are not saved in restart file,
			so cannot do an exact restart
			for langevin style, damping parameter means small value -> less damping
			for nose/hoover style, frequency constant is like an inverse "piston"
			mass which determines how rapidly the temperature fluctuates in response to a
			restoring force, large frequency -> small mass -> rapid fluctations
			for langevin and nose/hoover styles, units of frequency/damping constant are
			inverse time, so a value of 0.01 means relax in a timespan on the
