[Rivet] Got stuck in Rivet

[Andy Buckley]

Hi,

That run.sh script you talk about isn't part of Rivet. It looks like it 
needs some improvements, both to only call mkfifo if the target doesn't 
already exist, and to fix the options passed to rivet: like the error 
message says, there is no "--process" flag.

I suggest you take a look in the script to understand what it's trying 
to do. Running rivet directly may be easier!

Andy
