    """Read QE bands file lines, returning the raw (unscaled) k-markers and energies.

    Parameters
    ----------
    root : Path or str
        Directory containing the QE bands file.
    prefix : str
        Prefix used in the QE bands file name: "{prefix}_bands.dat".

    Returns
    -------
    k_markers : (N_k, 3)
        Cartesian k-vectors exactly as printed by `bands.x`, i.e. in
        units of ``2π/alat``. Callers may rescale them after the fact
        if they want k in reciprocal-lattice or Cartesian Å⁻¹ units.
    energies_rows : list[list[float]]
        energies per k-point
    meta : dict with possible keys 'nbnd', 'nks'

    Notes
    -----
    - Quantum ESPRESSO's `bands.x` module writes k-points in units of
      ``2pi/alat``, where `alat` is the lattice parameter specified in
      the QE input file. This function does not perform any rescaling
      of the k-points; it is the caller's responsibility to do so if
      needed. The :class:`pythtb.W90` class provides utilities for
      rescaling k-points to reciprocal-lattice or Cartesian units.
