[BLAST_ANAWARE] macros, hurz and aap's

Hello there,

I've been pushed by various counting bay personnel to clean up our
directories and enforce tight rules and I fully agreed, with great
pleasure.

Points at hand: There is no virtue in having 10 copies of a macro,
both cuts and variables can be passed from the command line. There
is also no point of having _tb, _cc, _uncle_joe versions, or keeping
temp_.., or .1,.2.3 versions indefinetely. Finally the macros
directory should not contain 40+ ps and gif files.

So I arbitrarily moved stuff to analysis/results, analysis/deve,
macros/User_macros directories (nothing was deleted) and re-arranged
our macros space.

Please have a look it. Various subdirs were made for clarity and safety:
Charge, Hydrogen, Deuterium, Raw ... and please have a look at the path
definition in $BLASTHOME/.rootrc file

Some rules:

_ In utils and macros we'd like to keep only standard, well tested stuff.
   
_ If you want to save your results, save them in the results dir.
   
_ If you want to make a mess and test multiple copies of a code do it
  in the devel directroy, your directory or anywhere but our dir.

_ Note ./macros, ./utils are at the beginning of the ROOT path, followed
   ~blast/pro2003/analysis/macros, ~blast/pro2003/analysis/utils.

So you can easily create your analysis space where you source your
codes first. Just copy the blast version of a program and modify it.
ROOT will use only the first occurance of a macro/program in your path
and you don't have to copy over everything since ~blast/../macros is
still in the path. If you think your changes are significant enough then
please update the blast copy ! (you could even send a message about it!)

 
User joe should work in ~/../pro2003/analysis/users/joe if he
needs to customize things.

Of course you could also do analysis in your own directories..

With best regards,
- tancredi
