[Run]

 The Run page is a combined page of the following views

     [Run:Run]   allows the user to run and monitor his simulations

     [Run:Files] to inspect the files during a run

     [Run:Data]  to process the output files

 All the three views share the same listbox on the left containing
 the list of simulations associated with this project/input file.

                          Allows the user to create clones of runs by
                          looping on a user defined variable (#define)
                          over a range of values.
                          E.g. Imagine you want to run 9 simulations with
                               varying energy from 10 to 100MeV
                               Steps:
                                 - define a variable in the input e.g.
                                   #define E 0.01
                                 - use the variable to the beam card
                                   BEAM    E: =-E
                                   (The minus is necessary for fluka to
                                    treat the function as energy. See below
                                    on Function Evaluation F3.6}
                                  - Click on the loop button, select the
                                    variable E and enter as:
                                       Start value: 0.01
                                       End value:   0.10
                                       Step:        0.01
                                    Click OK and 9 runs will be automatically
                                    generated.

                          You can loop on looped runs to create 2D scans. etc.

   -----------     ------------------------------------------
    Column-1        empty for a standalone run
                    +     for a group (click on + to expand it)
                    -     for a group (click on - to collapse it)
                    .     for a spawned job
                    Press <space> to toggle selected runs expanded/collapsed

    Column-2        filename to be given to the job
                    editable field: type-in the name of the run
                    The default run is the first one in the list,
                    with the input name inside the brackets <...>
                    Spawned jobs automatically are assigned names
                    based on the rules set on the Configuration F6 dialog (Runs)

    Column-3        number of spawned jobs (for multi-core CPUs)
                    editable field: type-in any number to set/remove
                                    spawned jobs
                                    Enter 0 (zero) to remove all spawned jobs
