Dear wien2k experts

I am doing constrained DFT calculation of NiO following discussion by
laurence marks in the wien2k mailing list. The following steps I have done:

(1) I have created usual NiO.struct file using crystal editor which is
following:

       NiO

(2) Next I have generated supercell program and getting following errors:


 Program generates supercell from a WIEN struct file.

 Filename of struct file:
NiO.struct

 Number of cells in x direction:
2
 Number of cells in y direction:
2
 Number of cells in z direction:
2
 Optional shift all atoms by the same amount (fractional coordinates).
 Please enter x shift:
2
 Please enter y shift:
2
 Please enter z shift:
2

 Current structure has lattice type F
 Enter your target lattice type: (P,B,F)
F
 Target lattice type will be F

 Supercell generated sucessfully.
 Stored in struct file:
NiO_super.struct

 You may need to replace an atom by an impurity or distort the positions,

use 1-5; for volume effects you may need even larger reductions.
