@ -129,12 +129,13 @@ and a3 are 3 orthogonal unit vectors (edges of a unit cube). But you
can specify them to be of any length and non-orthogonal to each other,
so that they describe a tilted parallelepiped. Via the *basis*
keyword you add atoms, one at a time, to the unit cell. Its arguments
are fractional coordinates (0.0 <= x,y,z < 1.0). The position vector
x of a basis atom within the unit cell is thus a linear combination of
the unit cell's 3 edge vectors, i.e. x = bx a1 + by a2 + bz a3, where
bx,by,bz are the 3 values specified for the *basis* keyword. For 2d
simulations, the fractional z coordinate for any basis atom must be
0.0.
