Standard parameters

  (chatter = 2) [integer]
    Verbosity of the executable:
chatter = 0: no information will be logged
chatter = 1: only errors will be logged
chatter = 2: errors and actions will be logged
chatter = 3: report about the task execution
chatter = 4: detailed report about the task execution
     
  (clobber = yes) [boolean]
    Specifies whether an existing output event list should be overwritten.
     
  (debug = no) [boolean]
    Enables debug mode. In debug mode the executable will dump any log file output in the console.
