[MITgcm-devel] diagnostics subdirectories

[Daiwei (David) Wang]

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your comment. It was a quick hack since I use 
useSingleCpuIO=.T.. It definitely works for per-tile output as well 
except when mdsioLocalDir is not empty, in which case, the model creates 
a subdirectories for each tile and one would need to create diagnostic 
directories inside these subdirectories. I didn't consider this scenario 
then, which however is probably not so hard to be included.

The code is simple and follows the treatment of mdsioLocalDir:
