gdat tutorial: some basic calls and functionalities

gdat calls in fact the main function MACHINE/gdat_machine.m within the gdat folder gdat can be call with one of the available "data_request" keyword or with a full trace_name

The basic call is: data_out_struct = gdat(shot,data_request,'option1',option1_val,...);

But sub-cases are also valid and explained below

At this stage, you need to do the following to test it:

addpath ~sauter/matlab/gdat_develop/crpptbx_new

getting the list of available predefined data_request names

gdat_data = gdat;
%
% This is the simplest call and returns 3 useful information:
gdat_data.gdat_request % contains the list of available data_request names
gdat_data.gdat_params % contains the list of basic parameters, including :
gdat_data.gdat_params.machine % the (default) machine name
%
% in addition
gdat_data.gdat_call % always contains the string so that the same gdat call can be performed (using eval(), see below)
