[Wien] unit of DOS

In Wien2k you have two different files:
- case.dos1, case.dos2 ...
- case.dos1ev, case.dos2ev ...

In the first case (dosX), the total DOS is given in States/Ry/N, where N 
is the number of formula units in your structure file. In contrast, the 
partial DOS are given in States/Ry/atom. One way to evidence such aspect 
is to look at the case.qtl file.
You will see that the total DOS of a given atom is the sum of the 
partial DOS of this atom (s, p, d, f orbitals) times the multiplicity of 
this atom in your structure file.

In the second case (dosXev), the total DOS is given in States/eV/N ...

Regards

Xavier
