Log Message:
-----------
fixed up the formatting in the 'building' section to use
the right emphasis tags instead of <tt>.  re-worded some
parts of this section to try to be clearer.

+In either case the

 <a href="../preprocess/preprocess.html">preprocess documentation</a>
 for more details on how to define the list and run it.
-The combined list of all observation types which will be encountered
-over all input files must be in the preprocess input list.

+namelist in the <em class=file>input.nml</em> file must contain files with
+definitions for the combined set of all observation types which 
+will be encountered over all input obs_seq files.
 The other important choice when building the tool is to include a

-<P>Generally the directories where executables are built will include

-you are building.
+<P>Usually the directories where executables are built will include
