[Wien] lapwsopara error

For example, in the lapwsopara_lapw file on line 292 there is

 >& .stdoutso_$loop

and on line 297 there is

 >>.timeso_$loop

So, some errors that occur might be redirected into these dot files 
(which are usually hidden unless ls -a is used or show hidden is 
selected in a graphic file manager [ 
http://askubuntu.com/questions/94780/what-are-dot-files ]).  So if you 
haven't already done so, I suggest also checking the .timeso_* and 
.stdoutso_* files if they exist.
