[Wien] SCF with Force convergence

Dear Stefaan,

I am attaching the struct file and the in1c file. I was trying to get 
force convergence for the system::
runsp_lapw -i 50 -it -fc 10 -cc 0.01

The scf cycle stops after the charge convergence criterion is met with the 
message "FORCES NOT CONVERGED" in the case.dayfile. I have done single 
k-point calculation (by allowing a shift).

Nandan.
