 obtained from zeolite database. Now I want to obtain the super lattice( say one
 unit cell of the zeolite lattice in real coordinates) of the zeolite. Does
 anybody know any program which can do this for me? Or if anybody has some script
 to do this, could you kindly share the same with me. Any suggestions will be
 highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 Use Mercury (from the CCDC) which has this nice "bug" of saving all
 atoms displayed:
 -open the cif
 -display full cell
 -save as xyz
