Well, if I can get it working, it will be a pleasure to write an 
improved manual. However, until now, there are some major problems I 
encounter:

- A "topographic index statistics file" is necessary as input. However, 
the original TOPMODEL program doesn't need such a file. So I really 
don't know what it would be.

- In my Mac OS X pre3 version, the r.water.outlet command is missing, 
necessary to create a basin map. Did it disappear in the recent version, 
or is it just a flaw in the precompiled macOS X version?
