[CIG-SEISMO] MINEOS synthetic amplitudes

[Li Zhao]

Hello Dimitri, 

There is no problem at all to check all or any part of the codes 
in Mineos2007 into the CIG repository. I have a more recent version, 
but it'd take me some time to collect all the relevant codes 
(both non-MPI and MPI versions). The differences with the 2007 
version are mostly in the auxiliary codes, not in mineos.f. 
There is not much one can do to mineos.f. What we can do is to 
refine the auxiliary codes so that mineos.f can be run more 
efficiently and smoothly, and also the subsequent mode summation 
more conveniently. 

Cheers, 

Li
