I have a suggestion to the code developers regarding of setting up the permanent_dir file directory. Currently this is possible via input directive permanent_dir only. However, in some cases, such as setting up multiple series of nwchem calculations, it would be much easier for user to define permanent_dir in a shell script via an environment shell variable, as it is possible now for scratch_dir, e.g.,
setenv SCRATCH_DIR value
setenv PERMANENT_DIR value
I believe that the option to read permanent_dir value as the environmental variable $PERMANENT_DIR is not hard to implement, since this was done already for scratch_dir via $SCRATCH_DIR.
