Version 1.3

The arguments of AP_init() have been changed (AP_init(&argc,&argv)) to be like MPI_Init(). To update old code, change the call to AP_init() to be a call to AP_setparam() with the same arguments, and immediately prior to that statement insert a call to AP_init(&argc,&argv) (or AP_init(NULL,NULL) if argc and argv are not available).

The global variables AP_nprocs and AP_mypid (as well as the Fortran interface functions AP_NPROCS and AP_MYPID are still supported but deprecated. New code should use AP_rank/AP_RANK and AP_size/AP_SIZE. The names were changed to more consistant with MPI.
