[CP2K:9723] Re: Warning in connectivity generation

Hi Gabriele,

I wish I looked at the TOPOLOGY section description more carefully -- 
apparently CONN_FILE_FORMAT (with the alias you mentioned) is indeed the 
key. Why it sets the default to generating a topology when DFT is used 
to calculate interactions is a bit beyond me. In any case, thank you!
