+(From ALherbier 20180614 - observed during the beautification ...)
+cpuh, cpum, cpus => should'nt we use INPUT_ONLY and NO_MULTI both for all three variables?
+diecut/diegap => should we incorporate only relevant if iprcel >=21 as in dielam?
+kptbounds => personal remark : a big part of the description should be moved in another place of the website (kind of tutorial somehow).
+occ => not sure if the dimension given in the description is correct (as it does not seem to correspond to the text).
+postoldff => should we give the units (I suppose in hartree/Bohr) in the text description?
+Should we remove the "specified" word in the following case ? *The use of this variable forbids the use of: specified(ngqpt)
+ratsph => the description text contains this "(in version 4.2, this procedure is NOT implemented, unfortunately)". Should it be removed?
+scphon_supercell => "TO BE IMPROVED: should contain a tutorial on how to do self-consistent phonon calculations, David Waroquiers 090831" What should I do with this sentence ?
+slabzbeg/slabzend => should be a scalar according to what I understood but the default value is an array =[0.0, 0.0] ?
+so_psp => Is usepaw==0 still a condition? Or can we now use spin-orbit with paw in recent Abinit version?
+spinat => In the description text, I found "In case of non-collinear magnetism (nsppol=1, nspinor=1, nspden=4)". Shouldn't it be nspinor=2?
+symafm => In the description text, I found "non-collinear magnetism ([[nsppol]]=1, [[nspinor]]=1, [[nspden]]=4)". Shouldn't it be nspinor=2?
+timopt => "If 4  -->  close to [[timopt]]=1, except that the different parts of the lobpcg routine are timed in detail. A different splitting of lobpcg than for [[timopt]]=-3 is provided." Should'nt it be [[timopt]]=3 at the end of this sentence ?
+tl_nprccg => "TO BE IMPROVED: all tl_* and wvl_* variables should contain a link to a tutorial, David Waroquiers 090831." What should I do with this sentence?
+wvl_hgrid => Not in the list of gstate ! should'nt it be the case ? (as for other wvl_* variables)
