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
#
####----- begin q_py.cnt------------
## all lines after the first "#" sign are ignored
--yearbase 2010
--cruisename km1001c_manual # used to identify configuration files
# *must* match prefix of files in config dir
#
--update_gbin ## NOTE: You should generally remake gbins
## - you are not sure
## - if parameters for averaging changed
## - various other reasons.
##
## ==> MAKE SURE you move the original gbin directory
## to another name first!! Default directory
## to make gbins is in uhdas_dir
##
--configtype python ## use km1001c_manual_proc.py for configuration
--sonar os38nb
--dbname aship
--datatype uhdas
--ens_len 300
--ping_headcorr ## applies heading correction.
## this ONLY works if there is a heading
## correction device specified in the
## config/km1001c_manual_proc.py file
##
--max_search_depth 3000 #if the topography says the ocean is deeper
# than this, do not autodetect the bottom.
# (reduces likelihood of shallow scattering
# layers being identified as the bottom)
EOF
## ----------- don't copy this part! -----------
Now if you type
cat q_py.cnt
you should see the file.
