AIPS data area assignment

On the nmpost machines you are expected to set up your own
data areas for AIPS and the include a file in your $HOME area
called .dadevs.always (note the dot at the start).  This file has
a special format - in col 1 a + or - then 2 blanks and then the
path to the data area.  In that data area you need to create a 0-byte
file called SPACE over which you and your group have rw access.

An example from my .dadevs.always is

+  /lustre/aoc/users/egreisen/AIPS/LUSTRE_1
-  /lustre/aoc/users/egreisen/AIPS/LUSTRE_2

The + makes the _1 area always my aips disk 1.

I am disturbed that this was not explained to you when you were
granted the nmpost access.
