Description

Detector-like component writing x-ray state parameters to a
SHADOW x-ray file. Used to interface McXtrace components or
simulations into SHADOW. Each neutron is 104 bytes.

Note that when standard output is used, as is the default, no
monitors or other components that produce terminal output must be
used, or the x-ray output from this component will become
corrupted.

Example: Shadow_output(file="MySource.vit", bufsize = 10000, progress = 1)

Input parameters
