[daip] VLBAEOPS and INFILE.

[Amy Mioduszewski]

I got rid of INFILE in VLBAEOPS after years of being badgered to do so.  People 
would run VLBATECR before VLBAEOPS and the INFILE would be filled in with the 
wrong thing.  I refused to change it because I figured people should look at 
their inputs, but did eventually cave because people started complaining to 
Eric.  So I obviously didn't remove it from the EXPLAIN files.  I did this last 
year, so unless you were using an old version of AIPS it should not have been 
there in February.

Will fix the documentation.
