-The work directory contains several scripts, including one which downloads
-the raw data files a day at a time (cosmic_download.csh), and one 
-which executes the conversion program (convert_script.csh).  These
-scripts make 6 hour files by default, but have options for other
-times.  The input files are downloaded a day at a time.  Be aware
-that each profile is stored in a separate netcdf file, and there
-are between 1000-2000 files/day, so the download process can be
-lengthy.  You probably want to download as a separate preprocess step
-and do not use the options to automatically delete the input files.
-Keep the files around until you are sure you are satisified with the
-output files and then delete them by hand.
-</P> 
-<P>
-The conversion executable, convert_cosmic_gps_cdf, reads the namelist
-from the file 'input.nml', but also reads an analysis time from the
-terminal or the standard input unit.  This makes it simpler to convert
-multiple files without editing the namelist.  The program prompts for
-the time string with the required time format, 
-<em class=code>yyyy-mm-dd_hh:mm:ss</em> .
