[mesa-users] Turning off neutrino types

I'm not sure that I quite understand this question.  The flags
variable is set to true in micro.f, and then passed into other_neu.
In your other_neu routine, if you modify flags before its call to
neu_get, you should get the behavior you want.

Have you tried to set flags and it's not working?  Or are you not sure
where to set flags in the first place?

If you want, feel free to send me your code and I'll take a look.

You shouldn't need anything more than run_star_extras.f for this case.
But one can compile each MESA module individually.  In that modules'
directory (so in this case star) do ./mk && ./export
