Number of parameters is limited to 127 #243

Expected Behavior

I should be able to pass all parameters offered (hhblits has 152).

Current Behavior

The program hhblits fails to run, complaining that the input parameter is not defined, even when it is.

The Cause

Seems argc (an int) is being cast as a char here, capping it to 8 bits (range of -128 to 127).
