oups, I read again the Ross' message and realize that I misunderstood 
your comment. I think we agree that an external generator have to 
produce hits which will be import to the G4 particle gun (according to 
what you said). I never worked with the GateGeneralParticleSource class, 
do you think that it's the good place to commit the changes ?
