msimul is a C program. msimul.params is a text file containing initialisation
data for the simulation (msimul). All statements are printed to screen by
the printf() function. In the case there is no parameter specified, I
changed the source to read a default file .msimulrc and hence it works. I
assumed that printf prints to STDOUT. There are no parameters that
control printing in the msimul.params (or .msimulrc).
