#start_efdc_slre.py
#Instructions:
# - First, modify "MODIFY" section with the proper paths
# - Open VisIt, select Controls:Launch CLI
# - A terminal should open with >>>
# - Copy and paste everything between BEGIN COPY and END COPY
# - Copy and paste commands one by one

##----After modifying paths, BEGIN COPY---------------------

##--MODIFY-------------------
##--Set path to scripts----
SCRIPT_PATH = "/Users/lllowe/visit-scripts"
#Put the full path to the file
#FILE_NAME = "/Users/lllowe/EFDC-CGEM/DATA/slre-cgem.2hrs.nc"
FILE_NAME = "/Users/lllowe/slre-cgem.novSiCdom.000000.nc"
##--END MODIFY


#So it can find setup_visit.py
