[Wien] Some questions about wavefunctions

Regarding Q4, I have an answer for you, but it may not be entirely 
correct. Based on previous discussions on the mailing list:

http://zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/pipermail/wien/2008-September/011469.html
http://zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/pipermail/wien/2010-March/012671.html
http://zeus.theochem.tuwien.ac.at/pipermail/wien/2008-October/011593.html

It is my understanding that when ALM is set in case.in2, Alm and Blm are 
given in case.almblm.  Also, RRAD1 and  RADE1 are given in case.radwf.

The file formats of case.almblm and case.radwf can be better understood 
by looking at the write statements in $WIENROOT/SRC_lapw2/l2main.F such as:

write(24,4893)l,m,index,alm(INDEX,NUM),blm(INDEX,NUM),(clm(INDEX,NUM,jlo),jlo=1,3)

write(23,4645)jatom,jri(jatom),r0(jatom),dx(jatom),rmt(jatom)

if (l.le.lomax) then
               write(23,4646) 
(RRAD1(jrj,l),RRAD2(jrj,l),RADE1(jrj,l),RADE2(jrj,l), &
a1lo(jrj,1,l),b1lo(jrj,1,l),a1lo(jrj,2,l),b1lo(jrj,2,l), &
                    a1lo(jrj,3,l),b1lo(jrj,3,l),jrj=1,jri(jatom))
            else
               write(23,4647) 
(RRAD1(jrj,l),RRAD2(jrj,l),RADE1(jrj,l),RADE2(jrj,l), &
                     jrj=1,jri(jatom))
            endif

RRAD1 seems to imply R*RAD1 or RRAD1 = r*ul(r,E) with E set in case.in1. 
Correspondingly, it is believed that RADE1 = ul_dot(r,E). I guess 
r=jri=r0*exp((i-1)*dx).
