simulate - create a detector image file from a source configuration description.
The program can be started with no arguments at all, in which case the
parameter values are taken from the parameterfile.
Alternatively, values can be passed via the commandline, the required items
as command arguments, the optional ones as valued switches.
The table lists all the parameters used by simulate, the second column lists the paramater key names used in the parameterfile, the first column gives the corresponding switch letter.
