[Wien] DFTD3 stop error

This is the problem:
the name of the directory (and poscar file) is BN-h which
contains "-", and dftd3 thinks that there is an option after this "-".
At the moment the solution is to rename your directory and
files (BN_h or BNh). I will see if there is a way to allow
directory name with "-".
