# Example for an excited triplet state geometry optimization with a constraint
# included.

# Needed for such excited state optimizations are the key EXCITATIONS (to
# calculate excitation energies), the key GEOMETRY (to do a geometry
# optimization) and the key EXCITEDGO (to select for which excitation a geometry
# optimization should be performed). In this case a Z-matrix input for the
# coordinates is used, and a constraint is used using the GEOVAR keyword. Note
# that one has to select the state with the irrep name A'', and not with AAA.
