I am not sure what you mean by wavefunction.
The coefficients of the APW expansion of the wavefunctions are stored in
case.vector. This file, however is
unformatted and thus not readable.
You can also print them in lqapw& (see UG)
You can calculte abd plot the wf in a plane using lapw7
and finally; the switch ALM in cqse.in2 prints the Alm,... expansion
coefficients as well as the radial paet/

x irrep gives you the irreducible representqtions.

The orbital momentum is calculated in lapwdm

Type help_lapw
and in the pdf file search for orbital moment (or similar)
