snogen is a script to generate SNOMAN command files.

Example:

    # simulate 100 1 GeV muons
    $ snogen -n 100 -e 1000 -p mu_minus | /path/to/snoman.exe

The output filename can be specified on the command line:

    $ snogen -o [output filename]

By default it will be [particle name]_[energy]_[number of events].zdab.
