  Hi,

Unfortunately, that routine (zexp_vnlpsi) has been broken for quite some
time now. It is supposed to calculate the action of exp(-i dt V_nl) psi,
where V_nl is the non-local part of the pseudopotential. As no one has
been using any of the split operators for quite some years, the routine
just gained some rot in the meanwhile. I will see if there is someone
with a bit of time to fix it...

  cheers,
  Miguel
