Program History Log:

Date	Programmer	Comment
1996-09-03	B. KATZ	Original author
1998-11-27	B. KATZ	Changes for y2k and fortran 90 compliance
2002-02-11	D. KEYSER	If "tlflag" is not specified, it defaults to

"notimlim" rather than "timlim" and gross time limits will not be calculated and returned in "iymdhb" and "iymdhe"

Parameters

[in]	SUBDIR	Name of sub-directory including bufr data type where bufr data tank is located.
[in]	LSUBDR	Number of characters in 'subdir'.
[in]	TANKID	Name of file including bufr data sub-type containing bufr data tank.
[in]	LTNKID	Number of characters in 'tankid'.
[in]	APPCHR	Characters to be appended to 'tankid' giving a uniquely named file to contain the original tank with one orbit appended to it.
[in]	LAPCHR	Number of characters in 'appchr'.
[in]	TLFLAG	8 character flag indicating whether time acceptance checks atre to be performed. = 'timlim ' : perform time acceptance checks. = 'notimlim' : do not perform time acceptance checks. jdate and kdate are disregarded.
[in]	IYMDHB	Start of time acceptance window, in form yyyymmddhh.
[in]	IYMDHE	End of time acceptance window, in form yyyymmddhh.
	IERR

Input files : unit 05 - standard input for passing in arguments. arguments (for list-directed i/o) are as follows : record 1 - (1) subdirectory. contains bufr data type (2) tankfile. contains bufr data sub-type (3) append characters. appended to tankfile to give unique output file name. (4) date in yyyymmddhh format. next three records are optional : record 2 - (1) time limit flag. may be either 'timlim ' or 'notimlim'. see description of 'tlflag' above. (default is 'notimlim') record 3 - (1) hours before current time. record 4 - (1) hours after current time. if 'timlim ' is specified in record 2, the quantities in records 3 and 4 are used to compute the limits of the time acceptance window. if records 3 and 4 are omitted, the values default to -48 (48 hours before current time) and +12 (12 hours after current time). if 'notimlim ' is specified in record 2, then these quantities are not used regardless of whether or not they were specified.
