wycked

WYCKoff position EDitor, by Axel van de Walle
Syntax:
  wycked spcgrp [-r] list_of_wyckoff_position_letter_without_seperators [species1:species2:...]
The output is meant to first be edited to set the free parameters a,b,c,alpha,beta,gamma,x,y,z,etc
in each of the lines starting with #const 
and processed by sspp to create a valid ATAT structure file.
 If the -r option is specified, then:
   the structure is relaxed using a soft-sphere model (of radius 1.5 A) by invoking the GULP code
   (multiple times (10) with randomized initial positions).
   In that case, you can also specify a colon-separated list of species that will populate each 
                     wyckoff position.
   Also, the structure will be isotropically re-scaled so that the nearest neighbor distance are 
                     consistent
   with atom radii from the atat/data/radii.in file.
