DICE needs two input files: st_input and ljname and use a third outname.cm or outname.xy optionally.
The input file st_input is read in the logical unit 5 (st_input = standard input). In this file, the lines, that start with #, are understood as comments and the information are associated with keywords.
Keywords that MUST be declared ALWAYS:
ljname =
outname =
seed =
upbuf =
ncores =
$end
Keywords that MUST be declared IF the initial configuration does not exist (outname.dat) or
init = yes or yesread:
nmol =
dens =
