                     == Narrowband pingdata files ======

    To process NB pingdata (assuming  300-second ensembles)
    (1) run
                  adcptree.py vg0304
    (2) change directories to newpingdemo/ping and link or copy the 
        pingdata files here

    (3) then "cd .." to get back to  the processing directory
    (4a) Now: (for example)

    quick_adcp.py --cntfile q_py.cnt

    ###   q_py.cnt is
    --yearbase 2003                   ## for decimal day conversion
    --dbname a0304                    ## database name, in adcpdb
                       # --use_refsm  ## this is the default.  
                                      ## no need to specify
                                      ##   (override with "--use_smoothr")
    --hcorr_inst  ashrot              ## for pingdata with ashtech
    --datatype pingdata               ## this is the default
    --datafile_glob pingdata.???      ## DO NOT quote the wildcards
    ### end of q_py.cnt

    (4b) calibration (watertrack and bottomtrack)

    quick_adcp.py --cntfile  q_pyrot.cnt

    ### start q_pyrot.cnt
    --yearbase 2003                 ## for decimal day conversion
    --rotate_angle .4               ## rotation (cal/watertrk/adclcal.out)
    --steps2rerun rotate:navsteps:calib ## do these steps
    --auto

    (4c) after editing:

    quick_adcp.py --cntfile  q_pyedit.cnt

    ## q_pyedit.cnt is:
    --yearbase 2003                 ## for decimal day conversion
    --steps2rerun apply_edit:navsteps:calib:matfiles  ## do these steps

                                  ## matfiles are automatically run the
                                  ##    first time.  must specify:
    --instname nb150              ##    - sets  defaults for matlab files
    --firstdepth 31               ##    - shallowest depth (from database)
    --auto
    ### end of q_pyedit.cnt

 NOTE to Windows users: 
       make sure your PATH includes the location of quick_adcp.py
       make sure your PYTHONPATH is set correctly
       make sure you associate *.py extensions with the python program
