[Rivet] adding error bars, goodness of fit and sum defects

Hello there :)

I've been trying to run rivet analyses with additional parameters, adding
error bars to the mc values and getting Chi^2 information displayed. I know
that I can activate error bars by specifying --mc-errs in rivet-mkhtml, and
I can get the Chi^2 added if I modify the .plot files for the analysis I'm
looking at in the local/share/Rivet directory.
Trying to add the command for error bars there makes rivet *very* unhappy,
and so does using a config file with those parameters for make-plots
directly. The instructions for make-plots point to a histogram ID, but I
don't know how where to find it?

I'd further like to get info on how many data points get rejected for the
plots - I'm trying to establish an energy window for pTz and don't know how
to get to the data I need to figure out a good cutoff point.

Any ideas?

Thank you kindly
Eike Germann
