To whom it may concern,
     I want to run constrained dynamics to relax the atoms. However, it
seems that if I use 'ion_dynamics = bfgs', the SHAKE algorithm does not
work. Is this true that the SHAKE algorithm is not implemented I use 'bfgs'
method to relax the atoms? Or I did something wrong? The input file is
attached below.
     Thank you very much.
