moved colordivbar to inside /functions
added an IF statement that checks whether there are any files to base the visualization on, otherwise th program crashes; also, I deleted all code relating to the conversion to GIF. I you want this, you should do that outside of the IDL program.
deleted commented-out code, only confusing and serves no purpose.
fixed an error in the date formatting, did not work correctly for single-digit months, days, or years; also, I added the full common block reference
removed some unused code; cleaned up; added some checks as per bird_ppi_loop.pro
some minor edits
deleted some commented-out code, and deleted some old FIXMEs
corrected a datetime formatting error in construction of the file name; removed some commented out code and an old FIXME
added a common block
removed a comment
added a common block; removed some commented-out code
added a common block; disabled printing of the IDL array to stdout; removed all code relating to making GIFs; deleted local copies of common variables SIGMABIRD and DBZFACTOR
this new function should merge the functionality of two previously separate functions, BIRD_PPI.PRO and BIRD_PPI_LOOP.PRO. In addition, it does make PPIs for both rain=0 and rain=1 automatically (used to be that the user needed to this).
