Hi Bjarke,
Tutorial seems to be the best way to go. We're planning to set up a
wiki on the kwant website in the near future, with the aim of
providing a broader and more recent collection of code examples. So
please feel free to make such a tutorial and share — it'll go to the
wiki.
Best,
Anton
PS please use 'reply all' in order for your emails to also be sent to
the mailing list.
