[Wannier] problems with wannier band structure

Dear Elio,

I guess from your email that you want to find a Wannier representation 
of entangled bands, i.e. the number of bands you choose for the Fourier 
transform / Wannierization is not equal to the number of basis functions 
(let's say N). In that case, you have to use the entanglement routine to 
construct a subspace of only N effective bands for which the 
Wannierization routine is called afterwards.

Kind regards,
Marc Höppner
