Thanks a lot!
I compiled macroave.x successfully but I found that it cannot run. When I use 
pgf90 to compile macroave, it reported 
splint: ERROR: DX=0
anybody can tell me why? I hope to use ifort to compile, but the produced exe 
cannot run!

Regards

Hello

I also perform surface calculations. Since XC potential is local, you must
be able to obtain the same work function
using either the full potential (prtpot) or only Hartree potential (prtvha),
if you have sufficiently big vacuum region.
However, when using GGA, the full potential has quite big oscillations in
the regions where density is small (in the vacuum), while it is smooth is
LDA. I also noticed, that earlier versions of ABINIT had a bug outputing
Hartree potential - for some reason it outputs only one plane wave. Having
pot file, you can post process it with cut3d,
and then average over the direction you like (z, for instance). prt1d does
this automatically.
