[output] file name conventions
We need to discuss the file name conventions.
As Siesta (and the community) goes more and more towards combinations of tools and mixing of outputs I think we need to heavily consider to implement some common practices.
A basic idea would be to always have some kind of suffix for files:
<>.siesta.EIG
<>.siesta.PDOS.xml
<>.siesta.DM
- ...
where <>
is the systemlabel.
This would ensure that all files are coherently attached to the output of siesta. While it may be weird to have very long suffixes (siesta.*
) I actually think that clarity is better here. No need to complicate things ;)
