Hi Carl,

My earlier answer applies.

With USRBIN WHAT(2)=PROTON we get all protons, regardless of the
generation number; no filter applied.

With USRBIN WHAT(2)=BEAMPART we get primary protons only; the score is
filtered.

I'm cc-ing to fluka-discuss as we normally encourage discussions and
records online.
