+**DCore** consists of four main programs, ``dcore_pre``, ``dcore``, ``dcore_check``,  and ``dcore_post``.
 All programs read a single input file (say *input.ini*) which contains parameters classified into blocks.
-See :doc:`input`, for details on the relation between the parameter blocks and each program.
+It is also possible to pass multiple input files to the program. Parameters from all input files are merged. Duplicate paramegers are overwritten by the later one.

     All programs can read input files of the same type and get the information by using blocks.
