Hi Andy, hi all,
preparing and using generator steering files for mcplots I find quite 
convenient to have ability to specify random number generator seed and 
number of events inside the steering file. This way the steering file 
consist all the necessary information to re-do generator run.

I prepared a patch (quite a trivial in fact) to add such a feature to 
AGILe. With the patch you can specify inside steering file, for example:

RG:Seed = 271
RG:nEvents = 10000

This will be very nice if you find the feature useful and can add the 
patch to next release of AGILe :).

Attached:
   agile-runmc.r823   - original (revision #823)
   agile-runmc        - modified with new feature
   agile-runmc.patch  - patch itself

Cheers,
Anton
