[Mesa-users] Regarding default name change for STELLA input files

[Francis Timmes]

hi rishabh,

i don't know for sure as i have not played much with stella, but ...

a perusal of $MESA_DIR/star/test_suite/ccsn_IIp suggests the file name
can be set in an inlist_stella with save_stella_data_filename = 'mesa' .

a perusal of $MESA_DIR/stella/res/stella_extras.f90 shows the lines

   if (iargc() > 0) then
      call GetArg(1,filestr)
   else
      filestr = 'mesa'
   end if

which suggests one can pass a file name to the stella_extras executable 
on the command line, such as

./stella_extras my_file_name

and the executable then tries to open my_file_name.hyd
