Dear Stacey, 

the default settings EXTRAPOLATION ASPC & EXTRAPOLATION_ORDER 2-4 
are already pretty good for simulations for most systems. USE_GUESS RESTART 
will allow you to resort from your previous WF. 

Cheers, 
Thomas

I'd like to utilize the previous time step's converged SCF information to decrease the convergence timing of the next energy/force calculation.  What is the best methods to read in the old data?
