Add your own run script:


•Create your own script by following another script, and store it into expscr/$model/newscript.in. The script will automatically appear as one of the run script selections in install script.

Add new subroutine:

If the newly added subroutine is not optional in model_config/*.h, just add it to the appropriate directory. No other changes are needed. A proper Makefile will be generated automatically. If it is optional, introduce a new c-variable in model_config/*.h file. Then create a new directory in the appropriate model directory with the same name as the c-variable (should be upper case), and place the subroutines in that sub directory. No other action is needed. When the c-variable is defined, the newly added subroutines are automatically compiled and linked.

Add new a new program:

This requires a little bit of work. First, you need to add the program into the ${MODEL}_PROGS or ${MODEL}_MPI_PROGS lists in def/syvars.defs. Then, you need to add a new directory in $MPDEL /src/new_prog and place all the *.F files. You also need to copy Makefile.in from other program directory and modify. You also need to add script to run the program. Do this in ${MODEL}_runs/runscr and generate new_prog.in. Of course you need to create a new run script to used that program. Do this by adding expscr/$MODEL/new_run_script.in.

Add a new model:

This requires a lot of work and is beyond the scope of this article.
