[Rivet] Using zipped I/O

[Corpe, Louie]

Hi Riveters,


I'm trying to use the zipped i/o functionality introduced in Rivet 2.6.0 / Yoda 1.7.0.
I can't seem to get it working: is there an example of how to do this somewhere?

I've included a minimal example [1]. Please let me know what I'm doing wrong!
The files I used in [1] can be found on my public on lxplus: /afs/cern.ch/user/l/lcorpe/public/RivetZippedIO/examples/

All the best and thanks in advance !


Louie
