[Wien] Error running wannier90.x for GaAs spin-orbit coupling wien2wannier

[Dara Goldar]

Dear Mr. Elias Assmann

I confirmed with your suggested interactive test that my version of c -
shell does not support -s.

As you recommended, I've now upgraded to tcsh and successfully run x
wannier90 -so for GaAs. Problem fixed.

Thank you very much for your help!

best regards,
Dara Goldar
