[Wien] A few basic questions about LAPWSO

Dear colleagues,

just to avoid confusion:  Emax has different meaning in original (WIEN97)
and present WIEN2k version (implemented by Georg Madsen and Jan Kunes). In
the present version Emin and Emax only specify the energy window for
LAPWSO eigenvalues - this is also written in the Userguide. To make the
calculation more precise the Emax in LAPW1 input must be increased.

Regards  Pavel
