Discription

-h	N	Displays the help text and exits the program.
-woutf	Y	Specify the wout input file name.
-surff	Y	Specify the surface file name.
-logf	Y	Write screen output to a log file.
-para	Y	Configures openmp parallelism. The value of this flag sets the maximum number of threads to use. A value of -1 uses the default.

Note

OpenMP and MPI support must be configured at compile time to use. A simple way to check if support has been included is to check the command line help -h.
