"result1" is ok (is the best you can get with WIEN2k).
when you run mini again including -orb -so; your results would be wrong.

By using -fc X the script changes in the last iteration TOT to FOR.
So "force-convergence" is "the same" as setting FOR yourself.
Please read the usersguide ! Print it and put it next to your bed and study it
