When the non-SCF calculation is performed, k-points and Kohn-Sham eigenvalues are printed in "energy.data." However, "energy.data" alone cannot be used to plot the band structure. For this purpose, "energy2band" included in the "util" directory is used.
Here a sample bash script, which generate the band structure is shown.
