Dear abinitioners,

I am calculating the chalcopyrite structure, with a = b \= c. With following
'acell', 'rprim' and 'xred',
acell 11.9 11.9 23.8
rprim 1.0 0.0 0.0
0.0 1.0 0.0
0.5 0.5 0.5

xred 0.0 0.0 0.0
-0.25 0.25 0.5
0.5 0.5 0.0
0.25 -0.25 0.5
0.125 0.125 0.25
-0.375 -0.375 0.25
-0.125 0.375 -0.25
0.375 -0.125 -0.25

I find that the ABINIT does not give correct real atom position: 'xcart'.

Maybe this is my fault. So I want to know how does the ABINIT define 'xcart'
from 'xred'. Can any one tell me or tell me which subroutine does this job?

Thanks.
