Description

The current version of libgene_tano.F90 has x0 = 0.5 (on two separate lines). This overrides what is in the GENE parameters file. If a value other than x0=0.5 is desired, currently one would have to manually change this value and recompile libgene_tango.

Research direction

Start by inspecting libgene_tano.F90 and the Python interface path that supplies GENE parameters; locate both hardcoded x0 = 0.5 assignments mentioned in the issue. Done means a caller can provide a non-default x0 through the Python interface and that value is not overridden by the Fortran code or requires recompilation.
