See #726

Update README.md fix typo

Fixed typo "recomment" -> "recommend"

Can be used for numeric comparisons in precompiler directives

Error is this one:
../maketools/makelinks.sh: line 24: echo: write error: Broken pipe

It's triggered by the comparison with a <(echo) file, since the comparison
might fail before echo completes. If this works I will backport it

minor improvements to OPES_METAD

See #524
