Dear Professor Blaha,

thank you very much for your kind reply. That explains a lot to me.
I have one additional question:
case.radwf file contains radial wave functions, their energy derivatives 
and RLO.
I found, that radial functions are multiplied by r. My question is 
whether their derivatives and RLO are also multiplied by r?

Best regards,
Sylwia Gutowska
