A "heredoc" is a way of pasting words onto the commandline
and having them end up in a file. Copy and paste everything
below the line (starting with "cat << EOF" and drop it into
a command-line terminal in the processing directory:
#----------------------------------
cat << EOF > q_py.cnt
### q_py.cnt contents
## python processing
--yearbase 2009 ## required, for decimal day conversion
## (year of first data)
--cruisename ps0918_manual ## *must* match prefix in config dir
--dbname aship ## database name; in adcpdb. eg. a0918
##
--datatype uhdas ## datafile type
--sonar os75bb ## specify instrument letters, frequency,
## (and ping type for ocean surveyors)
--ens_len 300 ## averages of 300sec duration
##
--update_gbin ## required for this kind of processing
--configtype python ## file used in config/ dirctory is python
##
--ping_headcorr ## ps0918_manual_proc.py says use HDT first,
## correct to ashtech
--max_search_depth 1500 ## try to identify the bottom and eliminate
## data below the bottom IF topo says
## the bottom is shallower than 1000m
EOF
## ----------- don't copy this part! -----------
Now if you type
cat q_py.cnt
you should see the file.
