This is a preliminary version of a function that may be extended or
deleted in a future version of Oce.  Part of the uncertainty is that the
format was inferred from inspection of files, and this is a dangerous
procedure, path because the data archiver might alter formats in future.


Supports the analysis of Oceanographic data, including 'ADCP'
measurements, measurements made with 'argo' floats, 'CTD' measurements,
sectional data, sea-level time series, coastline and topographic data, etc.
Provides specialized functions for calculating seawater properties such as
potential temperature in either the 'UNESCO' or 'TEOS-10' equation of state.
Produces graphical displays that conform to the conventions of the Oceanographic
literature.
