Hi Marks,
Thanks for the suggestion. As usual your comments are very useful. I
noticed
wien2k creates a file case.outputtup when I run x tetra -up. This file does
contain
DOS information (slightly different format than usual case.dos1up) but I should
be
able to extract that by using simple script.
Best,
Fhokrul
