Hi,

Just modify your events by hand.
Then put them back to their original location. (or under a new subdirectory inside Events).

then you can run the pythia-pgs package via the command:
./bin/madevent
then type
pythia RUNNAME
(where RUNNAME is the name of the directory in which your LHE events file is).

Cheers,

Olivier
