NAME
rivet - Robust Independent Validation of Experiment and Theory SYNOPSIS
rivet [options] myfifo OPTIONS
--version show program's version number and exit. -h, --help show this help message and exit. -l NATIVE_LOG_STRS set a log level in the Rivet library. -a ANA, --analysis=ANA add an analysis to the processing list. --list-analyses show the list of available analyses' names. With -v, it shows the descriptions, too. --list-used-analyses list the analyses used by this command (after subtraction of inappropriate ones). --show-analysis=SHOW_ANALYSES, --show-analyses=SHOW_ANALYSES show the details of an analysis. --analysis-path=PATH specify the analysis search path (cf. $RIVET_ANALYSIS_PATH). --analysis-path-append=PATH append to the analysis search path (cf. $RIVET_ANALYSIS_PATH). --pwd append the current directory (pwd) to the analysis search path (cf. $RIVET_ANALYSIS_PATH). -H HISTOFILE, --histo-file=HISTOFILE specify the output histo file path (default = Rivet.aida). -x XS, --cross-section=XS specify the signal process cross-section in pb. -n NUM, --nevts=NUM restrict the max number of events to read. --runname=NAME give an optional run name, to be prepended as a 'top level directory' in histo paths. --ignore-beams Ignore input event beams when checking analysis compatibility. --event-timeout=NSECS max time in whole seconds to wait for an event to be generated from the specified source (default = 21600) --run-timeout=NSECS max time in whole seconds to wait for the run to finish. This can be useful on batch systems such as the LCG Grid where tokens expire on a fixed wall-clock and can render long Rivet runs unable to write out the final histogram file (default = unlimited). --histo-interval=HISTO_WRITE_INTERVAL [experimental!] specify the number of events between histogram file updates. Default is to only write out at the end of the run. Note that intermediate histograms will be those from the analyze step only: analysis finalizing is currently not executed until the end of the run. -v, --verbose print debug (very verbose) messages. -q, --quiet be very quiet. EXAMPLES

: RIVET_ANALYSIS_PATH list of paths to be searched for plugin analysis libraries at runtime. RIVET_REF_PATH list of paths to be searched for reference data files. RIVET_INFO_PATH list of paths to be searched for analysis metadata files. AUTHOR
