| 6 | | post_it has been developped in IDL by Eric Guilyardi. It uses SAXO routines which has been developped by Sébastien Masson. post_it may help visualise and analyse netcdf data outputs from models automaticly without knowing properly the SAXO routines. However I recommend the user to have some notions of IDL to use this software. A good way to do this is also to read the SAXO documentation on http://forge.ipsl.jussieu.fr/saxo/ |

| 8 | | === Directories and files === |
| 9 | | |
| 10 | | You should create two directories in your home directory : |
| 11 | | |
| 12 | | * 'POST_IT' (where to download the sources through svn) |
| 13 | | * 'SAXO' (which can be a link to Sébastien Masson's directory '/usr/home/smasson/SAXO_DIR/SRC/' if you have an account in LOCEAN or once again dowload the sources through svn). |
| 14 | | |
| 15 | | post_it has a new structure since it has been managed by a svn server. The 'POST_IT' directory contains 7 main directories : |
| 16 | | {{{ |
| 17 | | chromios.locean-ipsl.upmc.fr:/.autofs/home/mklod/POST_IT> ls |
| 18 | | config doc grids out procs tools usr |
| 19 | | chromios.locean-ipsl.upmc.fr:/.autofs/home/mklod/POST_IT> |
| 20 | | }}} |
| 21 | | |
| 22 | | The main files which the user will have to change are : |
| 23 | | {{{ |
| 24 | | hromios.locean-ipsl.upmc.fr:/.autofs/home/mklod/POST_IT/usr> ls -l |
| 25 | | -rw-r--r-- 1 mklod lodyc 2956 Jul 12 17:52 init.pro |

| 27 | | lrwxrwxrwx 1 mklod lodyc 5 Jul 11 18:26 p -> p.pro |
| 28 | | -rw-r--r-- 1 mklod lodyc 8198 Jul 17 17:59 plt_def.pro |

| 33 | | }}} |
| 34 | | |
| 35 | | === Launch IDL and POST_IT === |
| 36 | | |
| 37 | | * Parametrize the init.pro file (the path variable where to find the POST_IT and SAXO directories -> mandatory ; other directories such as homedir -> you can leave the default values). |
| 38 | | * Launch idl in the 'usr' directory. |
| 39 | | |
