Auxiliary basis sets

It is possible to specify more than one basis set. For example, by typing

 1:BASIS
 2:4-31G** 6-311++G(3df,3pd)
the basis set 6-311++G(3df,3pd) will be used as an auxiliary basis. When using an auxiliary basis, each atom line must contain a basis-set identifier, which at present may take the values Set=1 (orbital basis) or Set=2 (auxiliary basis). Basis sets with Set=1 must be read first, basis sets with Set=2 thereafter. The above also applies to the ATOMBASIS and INTGRL input modes. Examples are provided by the following input files:
 1:BASIS
 2:cc-pVDZ cc-pCVQZ
 3:Direct MP2-R12/cc-pVDZ calculation on H2O

Note that the keyword .AUXBAS must be specified in the **INTEGRALS input section to be able to read the above inputs.
