loadceil

loadceil is a `mex' file that reads Chilbolton data directly into matlab. A mex file is basically compiled C code that can be dynamically linked in to the matlab process when the function it provides is called from within matlab. This gives it a distinct speed advantage over a program written in the interpreted matlab language. This particular program is rather limited and only reads a single data file in:

[utc,range,beta,cloudbase1,cloudbase2,cloudbase3,date] = ...
   loadceil(filename,averays,avegates,noisefactor,minbeta)

All input arguments are optional except the filename
