Dear Elias,

Thank you for the reply.

Here is one more guess: mixed units in the provided *win

The following line (begin unit_cell_cart, ang) suggests [Angstr] units, 
whereas the numbers are definitely in [Bohr].

Latter (begin atoms_cart), the atomic positions appear in [A].


Thank you
Oleg

P.S. I am particularly interested in wien2wannier because it works with 
BerryPI for polarization calculation. We did not have a problem with 
BaTiO3 and other perovskite structures. However, I should admit that we 
stop at w2w and do not proceed with wannier90.
