quantities plotted for cubic solids, the code plots also the elastic
constants as a function of the temperature and the difference between
elastic constants calculated at constant temperature or at constant
entropy. These possibilities are implemented only for cubic, tetragonal,
constants and the bulk modulus as a function of the temperature.
Moreover the thermal stresses and the generalized average Gr\"uneisen
parameters are plotted.
These possibilities are implemented only for cubic, tetragonal,
hexagonal, trigonal, and orthorhombic systems. \\

Most probably you have not cleaned the outdir directory. Note that the

20. I made a calculation with <code>with_eigen=.FALSE.</code>. Is it possible
to restart with <code>with_eigen=.TRUE.</code>?

Yes, but you have to remove both the <code>phdisp_files</code> and the
<code>therm_files</code> directories, while keeping the
<code>dynamical_matrices</code> and the <code>restart</code> directories.
If you removed the <code>outdir</code> directory, use
<code>after_disp=.TRUE.</code> and set <code>fildyn</code> with the
name of the dynamical matrices.
