There are some notes supplied with the ABINIT code on how the wavefunctions
are stored. Look at the files Infos/Theory/1WF.dvi and
Infos/Theory/set_WFs.dvi (it may just be the tex files only) and you will
find some details on how the coefficients are stored and information required
to read them. I have not coded this up, since, for my cases, setting istwfk
to 1 doesn't cost much.
