Huub Van Dam 97f303e6f8 HvD: In the CVS era the $Id: $ tags in the source code files would
automatically be expanded to include useful information about the
checkin (including the file's revision number). With the switch over
to SVN this was lost because SVN only does this expansion if you 
explicitly ask for it (for every single file). 

I have added a script to the contrib directory that sets the appropriate
property to get SVN to do this expansion. This script will make it easy
to do this every time new source files are added. It is called
svn_expand_Id, the script contains some comments that explain the issue
and how it addresses this.  

This checkin sets this property for a subset of the relevant files
(trying to commit all files at once failed with svn crashing). 
In future the script will only affect those files for which the property
was not set before.

Below are examples of the use of the \verb+SYMMETRY+ directive in
the compound \verb+GEOMETRY+ directive (Section \ref{sec:geom}).
The z axis is always the primary rotation axis.
When in doubt about which axes and planes are used for the group
elements, the keyword \verb+print+ may be added to the \verb+SYMMETRY+
directive to obtain this information.
\section{\protect$C_{s}$ methanol}
The $\sigma_h$ plane is the xy plane.

\section{\protect$D_{2h}$ acetylene}
Although acetylene has symmetry $D_{\infty h}$ the subgroup
$D_{2h}$ includes all operations that interchange equivalent atoms
which is what determines how much speedup you gain from using symmetry
in building a Fock matrix.
The $C_2$ axes are the x, y, and z axes. The $\sigma$ planes are the xy,
xz and yz planes. Generally, the unique atoms are placed to use the z
as the primary rotational axis and use the xz or yz planes as the $\sigma$
plane.

\section{\protect$D_{3d}$ sodium crown ether}
The $C_3$ axis is the z axis. The point of inversion is the origin. One of
the perpendicular $C_2$ axes is the x=y axis. One of the $\sigma_d$ planes
is the plane containing the -x=y axis and the z axis.
Note that the oxygen atom is rotated in the x-y plane 15
degrees away from the y-axis so that it lies in a mirror
plane. There is a total of six atoms generated from the
unique oxygen, in contrast to twelve from each of the carbon
and hydrogen atoms.
