Comment (by knarf):
I don't think printing information at the end of a run is a good place for
advertisement. Also, Carpet already depends on LoopControl. Everyone using
Carpet has to use LoopControl anyway.
The boilerplate you mentioned is usually output at the start of a
simulation. There, this is not much of a problem, as especially when you
are developing/debugging the end of a run is much more interesting. In
this case, LoopControl's output pushes interesting output up, out of the
screen and makes 'diffs' of output a bit more difficult to handle.
I would like to have the default changed - it shouldn't be printed by
default. While of course this information _is_ interesting, it is probably
not so for most people, who are are more concerned with the actual results
of a run. Since the current option 'verbose' produces a lot more than this
final output, and only producing this final output (but not every
iteration) would be a useful option, I suggest to do this via parameter,
defaulting to 'no output'.
