This dir contains the hooks to build and link LAMMPS with the OpenKIM
library so that a LAMMPS input script can use a KIM potential, via the
pair_style kim command.
You should first download KIM from www.openkim.org. Then build its
library API in KIM_API, with the models (potentials) you want to use.
You should then have the files:
openkim/KIM_API/libkim.a
openkim/KIM_API/libkim.so
When you build LAMMPS with its KIM package installed, it will use the
3 settings in Makefile.lammps in this directory. Note that they
depend on the KIM_DIR environment variable being set, which is
typically done when you build the KIM_API library.
kim_SYSINC = a path to the KIM_API directory that contains *.h files
kim_SYSLIB = the KIM library
kim_SYSPATH = a path to the KIM library
