DESCRIPTION subblocks in QUILD block

In case of multi-level jobs, where different regions are treated with different methodologies, the different methodologies should be given in the DESCRIPTION subblocks.

Description 1 here applies to OPBE/TZ2P(ae) with ADF, description 2 to B3LYP/DZ(ae) with ADF, description 3 to UHF/STO-3G through the ORCA interface, and finally descriptions 4 to 7 apply to description for NEWMM, DFTB, MOPAC and GENERIC respectively.

The input for multi-level approaches has been explained above. The standard input should be given for ADF, DFTB and NEWMM. See the corresponding User Manuals for ADF, DFTB and ADF-QM/MM respectively for them. Also for ORCA should standard input be used, the only exception being the total charge and multiplicity, which should be given as a partial %coords block. The QUILD program will then add the atomic coordinates to this block for the "black-box" inputfiles.
