GW bands

Hi,

I'm performing GW calculation on Silicon (I'm just little modifying the ABINIT tutorial input). I wanted to know if it is possible to recover band structure along a certain path WITH GW CORRECTION. I'm new user, so I don't really know how to do. I've seen that GW points where to calculate corrections are inserted by hand, but I was wondering if there was a way to tell a path. Moreover, GW correction must be done on SCF k-points. So, how to get a band structure?

Thanks,
Francesco

See the last paragraph of Section 9, First GW tutorial,
http://www.abinit.org/doc/helpfiles/for-v7.10/tutorial/lesson_gw1.html
"Finally, it is possible to calculate a full band plot of a system ..."

Cheers
