Install an run a pre-defined experiment

How to install a pre-defined experiment:

1. in new terminal, in src/ directory
   export VER_USER=FORC
    
2. run ./configure
   ./configure
    
3. execute the profile file corresponding to this user version of surfex
   . ../conf/profile_surfex-LXgfortran-SFX-V9-1-0-FORC-MPIAUTO-O2-X0
    
4. run make user and make installuser to create the specific executables in directory exe/
   make user
make installuser
    
5. go into MY_RUN/FORCING directory and run prepare_forcing.bash with a name of experiment as argument. For example, here, the experiment ’hapex’
   ./prepare_forcing.bash hapex
   A namelist MY_PARAM.nam will open (vi editor). For the first time, it’s not necessary to modify this namelist. So, you can simply quit (use command :q)
    
6. Some information will then be written on the screen and should look like:
   — namelist NAM_MY_PARAM read
   > ==========================================
   > PREP_INPUT_EXPERIMENT: YEXPER = HAPEX
   > PREP_INPUT_EXPERIMENT: INI = 1
   > PREP_INPUT_EXPERIMENT: INPTS = 17521
   > PREP_INPUT_EXPERIMENT: JNPTS = 17521
   > PREP_INPUT_EXPERIMENT: ZTSTEPFRC = 1800.
   > PREP_INPUT_EXPERIMENT: YFORCING_FILETYPE = NETCDF

   > input files moved to /home/lemoigne/surfex/open_SURFEX_V8_1/MY_RUN/KTEST/hapex
   ==============================================
    
7. Once the installation is done, go to $SRC_SURFEX/MY_RUN/KTEST/hapex directory and launch successively:
   ./pgd.exe
./prep.exe
./offline.exe
    
8. If you code is correctly installed and compiled, PGD, PREP and OFFLINE PGD should run correctly, and you should get .TXT output files in your run directory.
