7 new parameters: BTAG_func_b, BTAG_func_c, BTAG_func_g, BTAG_func_l
8 - new: Isolation: SumEt & SumPt added for muons & electrons

[551]18 - new: ./configure for the installation
[547]19 - update: default jet algorithms have change in data cards
20 - update: adding some missing "#include" statements due to a loss of
21 permissivity in recent g++ compilers.

[265]100 * Changes relative to V.1.4beta:
101 - implementation of the energy flow
102 - calotowers are first merged then smeared

[231]125 * Changes relative to V.1.3beta:
126 - new overal header and program output to screen.
[261]127 - new trigger cards ATLAS and CMS-like
128 - new detector card ATLAS oriented

134 No more explicit leak is in the code. The only leaks left are
135 related to ROOT, to mcfio dependecy and to Hector.
136 This implied the systematic addition of copy-constructor,
137 operator= and correct destructors in Delphes classes
138 - update of the BField simulation; still in the case of B = Bz only
139 - JetsUtil* files renamed to JetsUtil*
