// any of its remote file access plugins. It is therefore usefull in    //
// a Grid environment where the files might be accessable via Castor,   //
// rfio, dcap, etc.                                                     //
// The merging interface allows files containing histograms and trees   //
// to be merged, like the standalone hadd program.                      //
