Dear Jinjan,

I do not use that server -- I always use Cryscon and ALWAYS look at the
structure before doing anything else.

Did you try just importing a cif file using cif2struct, then letting Wien2k
transform the structure? This normally works although Wien2k sometimes
forces gamma to be > 90 which while technically correct is inconvenient. (I
think this should be changed, a useful mini project for someone.) If needed
"x patchsymm" will pick up on problems.
