read_data.cpp worries

Hi Axel,

Well, then, I 'll have another look in the documentation about the syntax. However, if you would have the time to indicate a correct syntax to run the simulation with example input files, such as the Au_O, It would be very nice.

thanks,
regards,
Adrien

Hi Axel,

it is not about syntax.
the software is doing *exactly* what it says it does.
it is about conventions and common practices in
how people run simulations and you not understanding
a simple and reasonable error message.

the read_data command says to read a specific data file,
that data file is located in that specific directory. now if
you read the input file, while your current working directory
is not the directory that has the data file, how the hell
should LAMMPS know where to find it??

every normal person will do:
cd examples/reax/Au_O
../../../src/lmp_serial < in.AuO

and it will (magically) work.
