Dear David,

sorry any noise again. I am using a MC embeded with Herwig6 that
produces a *.ntp file. According authors of that MC, the machinary is
the same of Herwig6. The MC is called FPMC.

I am able to switch Herwig6 options into FPMC. My doubt is if there is
some switch on Herwig to allow the production of any *.data (HepMC)
format file or maybe LHE.

All the best,
Sorry any misunderstood,
have a nice day,
Diego.

    Dear Diego,

    I'm forwarding your request to the Agile list, for suggestions for
    another method. I don't handle these format conversions very often
    myself.

    If I understand you right, you already have .ntp files and cannot rerun
    HERWIG6?

      David
