The init_hf_lapw script and template.in0_grr_hf symbolic link to the 
case.in0_grr_hf file in SRC_templates exists in Wien2k 13.1, but not in 
12.1.  If you are using 12.1, you have to follow a different set of 
instructions as described in the 12.1 userguide (see SRC directory of 
your installation).
