Fixed incorrect reference to fill_inflation_restart.html (in the index.html)
Supplied a correct filename in the fill_inflation_restart example.
Mentioned that the NCO tools can be used to supply inflation values in an input netCDF file
in the inflation section of filter.html

 <P>
 Here's an example of using ncap2 to set the T,U and V inf values:
 <PRE>
-  ncap2 -s 'T=1.0;U=1.0;V=1.0' wrfinput_d01 prior_inf.nc
-  ncap2 -s 'T=0.6;U=0.6;V=0.6' wrfinput_d01 prior_sd.nc
+  ncap2 -s 'T=1.0;U=1.0;V=1.0' wrfinput_d01 input_priorinf_mean.nc
+  ncap2 -s 'T=0.6;U=0.6;V=0.6' wrfinput_d01 input_priorinf_sd.nc
 </PRE>
 
 This works as long as you have at least version 4.4.2 of the NCO utils.
