The run_gridpack.sh script is replaced by a python version, and the interaction with launch_jobs.py is improved. It is now possible to save or load the intermediate LHE and HepMC files, so steps can be skipped if needed. For example, if only the RIVET routine is changed it can be faster to start from the previous HepMC files. It is now also possible to add the --rivet-ignore-beams for running on decay-only processes (e.g. H > b b~). Fixes #1.
In addition LHAPDF is now installed locally as part of the setup_mg5.sh script, and setting lhapdf in the run_card.dat should now work correctly. Note for existing areas it will be necessary to delete the current MG directory and re-run the setup script. Fixes #5.
