The "supergroup" struct file will be the "nonmagnetic" (or 
ferromagnetic) struct file. So setup a nonmagnetic example. In a AFM 
structure, usually the symmetry is less and some atoms (which were 
identically before) are now different (and one must label them as Fe1 and 
Fe2,...)
In your example, I think both symmetries will be identical (Please note,  
your example is not very well chosen. You have 3 layers, and they cannot 
be strictly antiferromagnetic (i.e. the total moment of your unitcell will 
never be zero (since you have 2 up and only 1 dn spin atoms!)



> Dear WIEN2k users,
>   I am started using WIEN2k about a week ago. I've tried the examples in the manual and they worked fine. I tried to use w2web to initialize a calculation for a Fe(111) surface antiferromagnetic (AFM) calculation. However it asked me to supply ''case.struct_supergroup'' file (after editing case.inst) . I looked at the examples in the directory /SRC_afminput/ but I still can't figure out the supergroup the (111) layers. I have read the text in pg 45 of the UG.Can any user kindly tell me how to construct a supergroup for the case.struct file below. OR how can I generate the file case.inclmopy from afminput and feed it to clmcopy
