 notes on matlab software and exercises:  
 ——————————————————  
   
 Having the up-to-date matlab software (gcmfaces and MITprof) set-up is pre-requisite.  
   
 1) if you did this set-up by following steps 1 and 2 of computing/iap-idma-readme (i.e.  
     using setup_gcmfaces_and_mitprof.csh) then the ‘software exercise’ #1 is for you  
   
 2) If you operate on a windows PC where shell scripting, cvs, etc cannot be relied upon,  
     then ‘software exercise’ #2 below is for you.  
   
 software exercises:  
 —————————  
   
 1) in a terminal window, go to your copy of gcmfaces and update it using cvs,  
     then do the same thing with MITprof.  
     tip : see http://mitgcm.org/public/using_cvs.html  
   
 2) set-up the matlab software manually  
    tip : see instructions provided at the beginning of
