snapgadget [parameter=value] 
 
snapgadget converts  data from
standard snapshot(5NEMO)
 format into gadget(lNEMO)
.  
Although gadget(lNEMO)
has several flavors of particles (halo, disk, bulge, stars, gas), this
version can only handle a limited set due to current limitations in the
way snapshot’s are handled. 
Some programs (e.g. AHF) that need proper cosmological
information in a gadget header, will need these explicitly passed via a
set of parameters (see below). 
 
 The following parameters are
recognized in order; they may be given in any order if the keyword is also
given. Use --help to confirm this man page is up to date.  
- in= 
- Input file (snapshot
format). No default. 
- out= 
- Output file (gadget format).  Each  snapshot is
placed in its own file, and "%t" is replaced with the time of the snapshot
(useful for times=all). No default. 
- N=Nhalo,Ndisk,Nbulge,Nstars 
- Nhalo,Ndisk,Nbulge,Nstars
needs to be specified for the sub-components as GADGET wants them. Note the
 current version does not handle gas particles. No default. 
- M=Mhalo,Mdisk,Mbulge,Mstars
- The masses (per particle) of each of the components listed in the N= keyword.
You only need this if no masses are present. Note in this mode it is not
possible to have different masses per component. Default: not used. 
- times=
- Times of the snapshots to select for output. Default: all 
- swap= 
- Force swaping
bytes for other-endian machines [f]  z= Current Redshift [0]     
- z= 
- Current
redshift [0] 
- box= 
- Box size (Mpc/h) [128]    
- omega0= 
- Omega_0 [0.3]      
- lambda0=
- OmegaLambda0 [0.7]      
- h= 
- HubbleParam [0.75]      
There is an option
to run gadget in double precision mode, their output files  may not be
compatible with this version of the program.
