[CP2K:7045] Re: Molecular crystal in a triclinic cell

[Alex]

Thanks a lot. The default cutoff is ~20 angstroms, according to the manual, 
which is actually almost equal to my cell size in the longest direction (22 
A). I suppose, default would be acceptable for the very first try.

Again, thank you.

Alex
