So that the program `eddy_graph` can read it, instead of deducing it
from the longitude coordinate.

Instead of deducing it from the longitude coordinate. The deduction
could not be generalized to a non-uniform longitude-latitude
grid. Also, the test on `step(1)` and nlon was not perfectly robust.

We are trying to simplify the logic in program `inst_eddies`. Also,
the program `inst_eddies` should not write `grid_nml.txt` to the top
level of the SHPC directory since several instances could run in
parallel for several slices. So we are leaving it as a task for a
script above `inst_eddies` to create `grid_nml.txt` at the top level
of the SHPC directory. In tests, we have to move `grid_nml.txt` to
SHPC because we use `SHPC/grid_nml.txt` in other tests.

Create `cropped.nc` and `unpacked.nc` in the current
directory. Several instances of script `inst_eddies.py` for different
slices should run in different directories.

We are reverting commit d4d05bc2. It was not true that we needed two
input fluxes in the Fortran program. `inst_eddies.py` can read the
file `config_nml.txt` and merge its content to stdin for the Fortran
program.

Always read coordinates from NetCDF file and create `grid_nml.txt`. Do
not try to read `grid_nml.txt`. Reverting part of commit c4410682. We
are trying to simplify the logic in program `inst_eddies`.

Add argument SHPC-dir to script `inst_eddies_Aviso.py`. We want to be
able to run `inst_eddies_Aviso` in parallel for several slices. Since
we write `used_config_nml.txt` to the current directory, we need to
run the parallel instances from different directories. So the current
directory cannot always be the directory containing the SHPC to be
appended to.

Add argument `SHPC_dir` to function `loop_inst_eddies`. We want to be
able to run `loop_inst_eddies` in parallel for several slices. Since
we write `used_config_nml.txt` to the current directory, we need to
run the parallel instances from different directories. So the current
directory cannot always be the directory containing the SHPC to be
appended to.

the program `inst_eddies` should not write `used_config_nml.txt` to

script over `inst_eddies` to create `used_config_nml.txt` at the top
level of the SHPC directory.

Do not try to read `used_config_nml.txt`. We are reverting commit
d9a67386, trying to simplify the logic in program `inst_eddies`. We
consider that using a single configuration for several runs of
`inst_eddies` is the problem of a script over `inst_eddies`, not the
problem of `inst_eddies`. Drawback: we write again
`used_config_nml.txt` in several runs of `inst_eddies`, but this is
not important.

We want to be able to run `inst_eddies` from a directory other than
the directory containing the SHPC to be appended to. Preparing to
write `grid_nml.txt` and `used_config_nml.txt` in the current
directory. To be able to do this in parallel for several slices, we
need to be running in different directories.

Makes more sense.

So the user can get the usage message more easily.

In program `examine_eddy`.

Change order of command line arguments of program
`examine_eddy`. Preparing to allow a variable number of NetCDF file
arguments.

Do not always specify uv-file when it is the same as ssh-file.

Instead of reading command line arguments in procedure `input_ssh`,
read them outside and pass file names to `input_ssh`. This allows
`input_ssh` to be called by programs with different number of command
line arguments, in different positions. Preparing to make the
specification of uv-file optional.

Reverting part of commit c4410682. We want to extend the program to a
non-uniform or non longitude-latitude grid. Checking equality of whole
longitude and latitude arrays, one or two-dimensional, seems a little
bit too much.
