Because PMX is written in ancient FORTRAN, I have to put in fixed dimensions
for all the array variables. When I first started working on it about 12
years ago, computers and compilers were very fussy about how big those
dimensions could be. They've gotten less fussy as technology has advanced.
But I presume there are still limits to how big I could or should make those
dimensions. So I don't want to arbitrarily pick some bigger numbers than are
now used. But if Simon or anyone else has a particular file that chokes PMX
and lies at the outer limits of the size you would ever desire, please send
it to me (directly) and I'll see if I can make the dimensions big enough for
that.
