## processing pingdata

(1) make the processing tree

adcptree.py pingdemo -d pingdata

(2) copy (or link) the data into the "ping" directory

cd pingdemo/ping
cp ../../../../pingdata/ping_demo/ping* .
cd ..

(3) save a control file

    create a quick_adcp.py control file
    windows:
        - you can create q_py.cnt with an editor to have the
          parts between (or including) the comments
        - it may be easier to call it "q_py.txt" to avoid
          fighting with your editor, which may try to set the suffix


    unix: this example  is written as a bash "heredoc" for
          cut-and-past ease, but you can create q_py.cnt with
          an editor to have the parts between (or including)
          the comments

cat << EOF > q_py.cnt

    ### q_py.cnt is

    --yearbase 1993
    --cruisename ademo
    --sonar nb150
    --dbname aship
    --datatype pingdata
    --datafile_glob pingdata.*
    --beamangle 30
    #--ref_method smoothr ## this is the default, and the only thing allowed
    ## these must match what is in the dataset
    --ub_type 720   # 1920 is more common; 720 is pretty old
    --ens_len 300



EOF


(4) run quick:

quick_adcp.py --cntfile q_py.cnt --auto

(5) check calibrations:
