Writing a FEMAP neutral parser, I met some some quirks with the file generated by MYSTRAN (v12.1). This thread aims to collect them. Please tell me if I need to split this thread per subject or question!
I'll begin with this a simpleCBAR + CBUSH model. The attached archive provides the following files:
* "bulk_model_TC3.nas": the BULK file
* "mystran_00.NEU": the MYSTRAN output
* "FEMAP_v8.2.neu": the FEMAP v8.2 output
* "FEMAP_v2020-1-0.neu": the FEMAP v2020.1 output
First remark: Block451 is used by both MYSTRAN and FEMAP8.2 to collect results, but is deprecated in later versions in favor of block 1051.
Block451: titles used by MYSTRAN do not match FEMAP titles. This makes harder to write "solver-agnostic" parsers. From the uploaded files, here is the list with mismatch and missing :
That's all for now! thanks for reading and happy MYSTRANning !

With aid from Bill, I've added a parameter to MYSTRAN called PARAM,DELBAN that deletes the bandit files from the home run directory. You can find the modified files in my respository here.
For future reference, the files needed (at the barest minimum to merely function) in order to add a parameter to MYSTRAN are
1.) Source/Interfaces/BD_PARAM_Interface.f90 where other subroutines can read the types of all parameter entities.
2.) Source/LK1/L1A-BD/BD_PARAM.f90 which processes the PARAM bulk data cards
3.) Source/Modlues/PARAMS.f90 where you define and comment the default value of your parameter, and describe what it does.
Otherwise, all that was needed for this parameter to be parsed was to add a conditional into Source/Modules/BANDIT/BANDIT_MODULE.f to deal set a close status flag to 'delete' instead of 'keep'. It's worth noting that my compiler was throwing a fit over my if statements for some reason here, I think that because this BANDIT subroutine contains some F77 legacy syntax, the newer compilers don't like some of the looser syntax available in the f90 and f95 scripts. Future tinker'ers beware.
Also I've added the bones of a README revision for the github page, as I really like the quality of Ceanwang and Bruno's works on documentation and I'd love to take it on myself to beautify them for publication in any way that you all think is best.
