[Halld-online] evio_cull_events

[David Lawrence]

Hi All,

 I have committed a new tool called “evio_cull_events” to subversion as part of sim-recon. This came from a suggestion by Beni. The tool works similar to hddm_cull_events in that it can be used to extract a single event or range of events from an input file and write them to a separate output file. This can be useful for debugging, particularly when the event you are interested in is the 10,000-th one!

 The tool is built on the gluon clusters so is available there right now. Because it requires EVIO, it is not included in the standard sim-recon build. To build it, you must go into the src/programs/Utilities/evio_cull_events directory and run "scons -u install” from there.

Testing of this has been limited, but it seems to work. Let me know if you have any issues.

Regards,
-David
