Hi, everyone.
Many of you have probably noticed that since I introduced the "cluster"
code in the hitFDC.c and hitCDC.c routines in order to simulate the
behavior of clusters of electrons drifting in from various places along
a particle's trajectory within a straw or FDC cell, hdgeant has slowed
down considerably and the output files have ballooned. To remedy this
situation I have introduced a new FFREAD card called DRIFTCLUSTERS with
the default value set to 0 (off) and made the relevant changes to the
hit routines. The cluster code is still available (DRIFTCLUSTERS=1)
but is not recommended for use for the reasons stated.
