Description
-----------
 
    This is a top level titles bank for SNOMAN and controls which processors are
selected. 

As of version 3.01 of SNOMAN, a more powerful method of controlling the job is
available - the programmable event loop (see DEFINE EVENT_LOOP command). The
JOBP bank may still be used (or the $processor_list command) as it is
just translated into a simple event loop program during initialization.

Notes
-----
 
1)  The bank consists of a number of variable length primary processor names
    which are used to select which processors SNOMAN runs.  Each is identified
    by the 3 character processor short name (see su_mnemonics.inc) surrounded by
    spaces.  The long name is ignored but may be added to improve readility.
 
2)  The list is terminated by the end of the bank or by ' END ' which allows a
    simple way to replace the processor list using a SET BANK command e.g.:-
 
        SET BANK JOBP 1 WORD 1 'MCO (Monte carlo), ANL (Analysis), END '
 
3)  Any Software Unit (SU) may be included in the list but for SNOMAN
    applications this is unnecessary as SNOMAN automatically selects any SU
    that the selected processors require.
 
4)  For more powerful control over a SNOMAN job, use the programmable event
    loop (see the DEFINE EVENT_LOOP command).
