Hello,

I am evolving a Low mass X-ray binary system. I have written a code for
calculating the binary parameters. What I want to do is at after few steps
stop MESA and provide MESA values such as mass loss rate. And then resume
MESA again to evolve the companion. I thought of doing it by stopping MESA
with max_model_number, run the binary code then make MESA read a new
(greater) max_model_number (through a file) and resume MESA using ./re. I
would provide value for max_model_number and run ./re through a driver code
so that I wouldn't have to do it again and again.
Sorry I was not clear earlier.
I would welcome if you have any other suggestion for it as well.

Thank you
