    ...actually, it was ready early yesterday, but I was waiting for Alex to
    tell me he'd installed the new deeplib in Berkeley. I haven't heard
    from him, so you will need to wait until he tells you that
    deeplib-0.5.14 is installed.

    The test subtractions are just redos of the last search. These are
    there for mucking about with and playing with the software. Learn the
    greyscale! Learn the individual images!

    Some notes:

      * PLEASE REREAD THE INSTRUCTIONS:

          http://brahms.phy.vanderbilt.edu/deepsearch/scp/acs2004/howtoscan.html

        Some things are added, some things have changed. In particular, you
        need to use a different command line than you used last time if you
        want access to the individual sum components for identifying CRs.

      * There is no need to save anything. This isn't a search, this is for
        practice. If you do save things as new candidates, they will go to
        the TestSupernovaCandidates Wiki page (with a name like test-001).

      * The Wiki procedures have changed. Look at the
        TestSupernovaCandidates Wiki page. The list on that page is now
        generated automatically based on the priorities in the database; you
        guys can't make a huge mess out of it the way you did last time. To
        change the priorities, edit the Wiki page for an individual
        supernova. You can also add a "soundbyte" for each candidate, which
        will be listed along with the candidate name on the main candidate
        list page.

        They will of course be listed on a May Candidates page as the next
        search rolls around.

      * When a new candidate is saved, it can take up to 15 minutes before a
        Wiki page for that candiate is created. DO NOT CREATE ONE
        YOURSELF. Wait for the automatically created one.

      * The list of subtractions to play with are on the scan monitor page:

          http://brahms.phy.vanderbilt.edu/cgi/deepsearch/scp/scanmonitor.cgi

    DO NOT DO ANY OF THIS IN BERKELEY UNTIL ALEX CONLEY TELLS YOU THAT
    DEEPLIB-0.5.14 IS INSTALLED.

    If you are anywhere else, you will need to download and install
    deeplib-0.5.14 from:

      http://brahms.phy.vanderbilt.edu/deepsearch/scp/deepsoft/deeplib/index.html
