Hi Nat,

Thanks for your reply.

I am now writing a bash script to call phenix.phaser. I do not want to use
shell command like mv or cp the files to desired directory, as I will
generate a lot outputs. I hope I could change some parameters in params.eff
to achieve this goal more easily. But as you said, it is not possible,
right?  Just for confirm. Thanks for your reply.

GP
