why "mpirun C" ?

Anyway: computers are deterministic objects, even if sometimes
it is really hard to believe that. If you cannot run your script, there
is either something in your input data that the code doesn't like
(check for invisible control characters, & in the first column, /
vs &end, missing end-of-line; all these are real-life cases); or the 
code is not reading the input data (check option -inp 'file'); or the 
code is not running under the same environment of the example
that works (environmental variables, library path, batch vs interactive,
whatever)
