[Wien] I want to calculate FeNi with lower symmetry

After running symmetry, you remove the symmetries in your struct file 
that doesn't match the lower symmetry. By hand seems to be the easiest 
way, I think.

Otherwise, you may try to displace an atom, run symmetry, and then move 
it back.

Or, you put in a "magnetization direction" and run symmetso, then remove 
the "B" symmetries from your struct file by hand.

But since you did not reveal why you need to do this, I can only make 
guesses, since as a general "feature" it does not really make sense. For 
example, you would need a denser k-mesh to get to convergence if you 
lower the symmetry.

Best regards,
Torsten Andersen.
