# vizplotgui_atomeye.py
# Purpose: viz running LAMMPS simulation via AtomEye with plot and GUI
# Syntax:  vizplotgui_atomeye.py in.lammps Nfreq compute-ID
#          in.lammps = LAMMPS input script
#          Nfreq = plot data point and viz shapshot every this many steps
#          compute-ID = ID of compute that calculates temperature
#                       (or any other scalar quantity)

# IMPORTANT: this script cannot yet be run in parallel via Pypar,
#            because I can't seem to do a MPI-style broadcast in Pypar
