Evaluating a Run

Note: ksl is thinking that we will need separate pages for explaining what is the data directory, both the spectral models like kurucz and the atomic data files. Generically, we need to give users a list of the files we commonly use and what the files are. I am in favor of a "newspaper style" approach that stars off with what files the files and then drills down to levels of detail e might provide in future.
