Hello,
I was looking into the param.ccl of CarpetIOASCII (hg version) and found some deprecated parameters:
BOOLEAN out3D_ghosts "Output ghost zones (DEPRECATED)" { } "yes"
BOOLEAN out3D_outer_ghosts "Output outer boundary zones (assuming that there are nghostzones boundary points (DEPRECATED)" { } "yes"
In what sense are they deprecated? I don't do 3D ASCII output, but I think that setting the above parameters to "no" would be better (see also below).
Furthermore,
BOOLEAN out1D_d "Do output along the diagonal" STEERABLE = ALWAYS { } "yes"
should also default to no, I suggest.
Finally, I would also make the default of:
BOOLEAN output_ghost_points "Output ghost points" { } "yes"
to "no". This would also make the script CarpetIOASCII/src/util/Carpet2ygraph.pl work again (see other message about Carpet2ygraph.pl in this mailing list). Except for debugging, is there any advantage in outputting ghost zones?
Cheers, Luca
