Agreed: for TiC it is "trivial", what else could it be, the "next"
eigenvalue must be C-2s. However, in more complicated cases with several
different elements,... it might be a little more complicated. The fastest
way during (after) scf is inspection of case.help* files. These files
contain the partial charges for each atom (XXX) and each eigenvalue and
allow a quick and unique determination which character is present for a
particular eigenvalue.
