[Wien] Using option Qsplit=6 in qtl to rotate to get t2g and eg

If I interpret Prof. Blaha's post at [1] correctly, "x lapw2 -qtl" 
should automatically give what you need such that you would not have to 
use "x qtl" (thus, you would not need case.inq if that is the case).

Referring to the description for line 6 in section '4.3 The “master 
input“ file case.struct' of the WIEN2k 19.1 usersguide [2] on page 41, 
you will probably just want to check to insure that isplit was set to 4 
in case.struct after the "x symmetry" step during initialization with 
init_lapw.

You might recall the TiC getting started example of section "3.11.2 
Density of States (DOS)" on page 24 of the usersguide [2].  Your 
description below kind of sounds like you might have only plotted 'tot' 
for the total DOS rather than the PDOS for an individual atom.

For your V2O3 calculation, I think you will want to make sure you 
selected the d-z2, (d-xy,dx2-y2), and (d-xz,dyz) by setting case.int 
appropriately.
