Command line interface

Madagascar was designed initially to be used from the command line. Programmers create Madagascar programs (prefixed with the sf designation) that read and write Madagascar files. These programs are designed to be as general as possible, so that each one could operate on any dataset in RSF format, provided you also supply the correct parameters and have the right type of data for the program.
