Problem with runlog.out file size
Hello: I'm working with toughreact 2.29 in a cluster, and i have noticed that the "runlog.out" file is the output file of higher size (even higher that "flow.out"). To the point that is an issue.…

Difference between 'e' and 'd' in power expression
Hi, it might be a minor problem though (because I am a newbie to scripting), Sometimes the power expressions are written in 'd', not 'e' (e.g. 1.0d-9, not 1.0e-9 especially in DIFUN filed).…
