/// Macro to run examples of analysis on PROOF, corresponding to the TSelector
/// implementations found under <ROOTSYS>/tutorials/proof .
/// This macro uses an existing PROOF session or starts one at the indicated URL.
/// In the case non existing PROOF session is found and no URL is given, the
/// macro tries to start a local PROOF session.
///
/// To run the macro:
///
///   root[] .L proof/runProof.C+
///   root[] runProof("<analysis>")
///
///   Currently available analysis are (to see how all this really works check
///   the scope for the specified option inside the macro):
///
///   1. "simple"
///
///      Selector: ProofSimple.h.C
///
///      root[] runProof("simple")
///
///      This will create a local PROOF session and run an analysis filling
///      100 histos with 100000 gaussian random numbers, and displaying them
///      in a canvas with 100 pads (10x10).
///      The number of histograms can be passed as argument 'nhist' to 'simple',
///      e.g. to fill 16 histos with 1000000 entries use
///
///      root[] runProof("simple(nevt=1000000,nhist=16)")
///
///      The argument nhist3 controls the creation of 3d histos to simulate
///      merging load. By default, no 3D hitogram is created.
///
///   2. "h1"
///
///      Selector: tutorials/tree/h1analysis.h.C
///
///      root[] runProof("h1")
///
///      This runs the 'famous' H1 analysis from $ROOTSYS/tree/h1analysis.C.h.
///      By default the data are read from the HTTP server at root.cern.ch,
///      the data source can be changed via the argument 'h1src', e.g.
///
///      root[] runProof("h1,h1src=/data/h1")
///
///      (the directory specified must contain the 4 H1 files).
///
///      The 'h1' example is also used to show how to use entry-lists in PROOF.
///      To fill the list for the events used for the final plots add the option
///      'fillList':
///
///      root[] runProof("h1,fillList")
///
///      To use the list previously created for the events used for the
///      final plots add the option 'useList':
///
///      root[] runProof("h1,useList")
///
///   3. "event"
///
///      Selector: ProofEvent.h,.C
///
///      This is an example of using PROOF par files.
///      It runs event generation and simple analysis based on the 'Event'
///      class found under test.
///
///      root[] runProof("event")
///
///   4. "eventproc"
///
///      Selector: ProofEventProc.h.C
///
///      This is an example of using PROOF par files and process 'event'
///      data from the ROOT HTTP server. It runs the ProofEventProc selector
///      which is derived from the EventTree_Proc one found under
///      test/ProofBench. The following specific arguments are available:
///      - 'readall'  to read the whole event, by default only the branches
///                   needed by the analysis are read (read 25% more bytes)
///      - 'datasrc=<dir-with-files>' to read the files from another server,
///                   the files must be named 'event_<num>.root' where <num>=1,2,...
///        or
///      - 'datasrc=<file-with-files>' to take the file content from a text file,
///                   specified one file per line; usefull when testing differences
///                   between several sources and distributions
///      - 'files=N'  to change the number of files to be analysed (default
///                   is 10, max is 50 for the HTTP server).
///      - 'uneven'   to process uneven entries from files following the scheme
///                   {50000,5000,5000,5000,5000} and so on
///
///      root[] runProof("eventproc")
///
///   5. "pythia8"
///
///      Selector: ProofPythia.h.C
///
///      This runs Pythia8 generation based on main03.cc example in Pythia 8.1
///
///      To run this analysis ROOT must be configured with pythia8.
///
///      Note that before executing this analysis, the env variable PYTHIA8
///      must point to the pythia8100 (or newer) directory, in particular,
///      $PYTHIA8/xmldoc must contain the file Index.xml. The tutorial assumes
///      that the Pythia8 directory is the same on all machines, i.e. local
///      and worker ones.
///
///      root[] runProof("pythia8")
///
///   6. "ntuple"
///
///      Selector: ProofNtuple.h.C
///
///      This is an example of final merging via files created on the workers,
///      using TProofOutputFile. The final file is called ProofNtuple.root
///      and it is created in the directory where the tutorial is run. If
///      the PROOF cluster is remote, the file is received by a local xrootd
///      daemon started for the purpose. Because of this, this example can be
///      run only on unix clients.
///
///      root[] runProof("ntuple")
///
///      By default the random numbers are generate anew. There is the
///      possibility use a file of random numbers (to have reproducible results)
///      by specify the option 'inputrndm', e.g.
///
///      root[] runProof("ntuple(inputrndm)")
///
///      By default the output will be saved in the local file SimpleNtuple.root;
///      location and name of the file can be changed via the argument 'outfile',
///      e.g.
///
///      root[] runProof("simplefile(outfile=/data0/testntuple.root)")
///      root[] runProof("simplefile(outfile=root://aserver//data/testntuple.root)")
///
///   7. "dataset"
///
///      Selector: ProofNtuple.h.C
///
///      This is an example of automatic creation of a dataset from files
///      created on the workers, using TProofOutputFile. The dataset is
///      called testNtuple and it is automatically registered and verified.
///      The files contain the same ntuple as in previous example/tutorial 6
///      (the same selector ProofNTuple is used with a slightly different
///      configuration). The dataset is then used to produce the same plot
///      as in 5 but using the DrawSelect methods of PROOF, which also show
///      how to set style, color and other drawing attributes in PROOF.
///      Depending on the relative worker perforance, some of the produced
///      files may result in having no entries. If this happens, the file
///      will be added to the missing (skipped) file list. Increasing the
///      number of events (via nevt=...) typically solves this issue.
///
///      root[] runProof("dataset")
///
///   8. "friends"
///
///      Selectors: ProofFriends.h(.C), ProofAux.h(.C)
///
///      This is an example of TTree friend processing in PROOF. It also shows
///      how to use the TPacketizerFile to steer creation of files.
///
///      root[] runProof("friends")
///
///      The trees are by default created in separate files; to create
///      them in the same file use option 'samefile', e.g.
///
///      root[] runProof("friends(samefile)")
///
///   9. "simplefile"
///
///      Selector: ProofSimpleFile.h.C
///
///      root[] runProof("simplefile")
///
///      This will create a local PROOF session and run an analysis filling
///      16+16 histos with 100000 gaussian random numbers. The merging of
///      these histos goes via file; 16 histos are saved in the top directory,
///      the other 16 into a subdirectory called 'blue'. The final display
///      is done in two canvanses, one for each set of histograms and with
///      16 pads each (4x4).
///      The number of histograms in each set can be passed as argument
///      'nhist' to 'simplefile', e.g. to fill 25 histos with 1000000 entries use
///
///      root[] runProof("simplefile(nevt=1000000,nhist=25)")
///
///      By default the output will be saved in the local file SimpleFile.root;
///      location and name of the file can be changed via the argument 'outfile',
///      e.g.
///
///      root[] runProof("simplefile(outfile=/data0/testsimple.root)")
///      root[] runProof("simplefile(outfile=root://aserver//data/testsimple.root)")
///
///   10. "stdvec"
///
///      Selector: ProofStdVect.h.C
///
///      This is an example of using standard vectors (vector<vector<bool> > and
///      vector<vector<float> >) in a TSelector. The same selector is run twice:
///      in 'create' mode it creates a dataset with the tree 'stdvec' containing
///      3 branches, a vector<vector<bool> > and two vector<vector<float> >. The
///      tree is saved into a file on each worker and a dataset is created with
///      these files (the dataset is called 'TestStdVect'); in 'read' mode the
///      dataset is read and a couple fo histograms filled and displayed.
///
///      root[] runProof("stdvec")
///
///   General arguments
///   -----------------
///
///   The following arguments are valid for all examples (the ones specific
///   to each tutorial have been explained above)
///
///   1. ACLiC mode
///
///      By default all processing is done with ACLiC mode '+', i.e. compile
///      if changed. However, this may lead to problems if the available
///      selector libs were compiled in previous sessions with a different
///      set of loaded libraries (this is a general problem in ROOT). When
///      this happens the best solution is to force recompilation (ACLiC
///      mode '++'). To do this just add one or more '+' to the name of the
///      tutorial, e.g. runProof("simple++")
///
///   2. debug=[what:]level
///
///      Controls verbosity; 'level' is an integer number and the optional string
///      'what' one or more of the enum names in TProofDebug.h .
///      e.g. runProof("eventproc(debug=kPacketizer|kCollect:2)") runs 'eventproc' enabling
///           all printouts matching TProofDebug::kPacketizer and having level
///           equal or larger than 2 .
///
///   3. nevt=N and/or first=F
///
///      Set the number of entries to N, eventually (when it makes sense, i.e. when
///      processing existing files) starting from F
///      e.g. runProof("simple(nevt=1000000000)") runs simple with 1000000000
///           runProof("eventproc(first=65000)") runs eventproc processing
///           starting with event 65000
///           runProof("eventproc(nevt=100000,first=65000)") runs eventproc processing
///           100000 events starting with event 65000
///
///   4. asyn
///
///      Run in non blocking mode
///      e.g. root[] runProof("h1(asyn)")
///
///   5. nwrk=N
///
///      Set the number of active workers to N, usefull to test performance
///      on a remote cluster where control about the number of workers is
///      not possible, e.g. runProof("event(nwrk=2)") runs 'event' with
///      2 workers.
///
///   6. punzip
///
///      Use parallel unzipping in reading files where relevant
///      e.g. root[] runProof("eventproc(punzip)")
///
///   7. cache=<bytes> (or <kbytes>K or <mbytes>M)
///
///      Change the size of the tree cache; 0 or <0 disables the cache,
///      value cane be in bytes (no suffix), kilobytes (suffix 'K') or
///      megabytes (suffix 'M'), e.g. root[] runProof("eventproc(cache=0)")
///
///   8. submergers[=S]
///
///      Enabling merging via S submergers or the optimal number if S is
///      not specified, e.g. root[] runProof("simple(hist=1000,submergers)")
///
///   9. rateest=average
///
///      Enable processed entries estimation for constant progress reporting based on
///      the measured average. This may screw up the progress bar in some cases, which
///      is the reason why it is not on by default .
///      e.g. root[] runProof("eventproc(rateest=average)")
///
///   10. perftree=perftreefile.root
///
///      Generate the perfomance tree and save it to file 'perftreefile.root',
///      e.g. root[] runProof("eventproc(perftree=perftreefile.root)")
///
///   11. feedback=name1[,name2,name3,...]|off
///
///      Enable feedback for the specified names or switch it off; by default it is
///      enabled for the 'stats' histograms (events,packest, packets-being processed).
///
///   In all cases, to run on a remote PROOF cluster, the master URL must
///   be passed as second argument; e.g.
///
///      root[] runProof("simple","master.do.main")
///
///   A rough parsing of the URL is done to determine the locality of the cluster.
///   If using a tunnel the URL can start by localhost even for external clusters:
///   in such cases the default locality determination will be wrong, so one has
///   to tell explicity that the cluster is external via the option field, e.g.
///
///      root[] runProof("simple","localhost:33002/?external")
///
///   In the case of local running it is possible to specify the number of
///   workers to start as third argument (the default is the number of cores
///   of the machine), e.g.
///
///      root[] runProof("simple",0,4)
///
///   will start 4 workers. Note that the real number of workers is changed
///   only the first time you call runProof into a ROOT session. Following
///   calls can reduce the number of active workers, but not increase it.
///   For example, in the same session of the call above starting 4 workers,
///   this
///
///   root[] runProof("simple",0,8)
///
///   will still use 4 workers, while this
///
///   root[] runProof("simple",0,2)
///
///   will disable 2 workers and use the other 2.
///
///   Finally, it is possible to pass as 4th argument a list of objects to be added
///   to the input list to further control the PROOF behaviour:
///
///   root [] TList *ins = new TList
///   root [] ins->Add(new TParameter<Int_t>("MyParm", 3))
///   root [] runProof("simple",0,4,ins)
///
///   the content of 'ins' will then be copied to the input list before processing.
///
