    There is a lot here and everything can really benefit from being cleaned
    up. BeamformerBackend.py is the BYU generated spin-off of similar to
    VegasBackend.py. It was developed trying to follow the similar
    Backend.py paradigm as VEGAS and GUPPI however this was done with little
    to no direction by GBO and so the changes BYU has made may have made
    BeamformerBackend.py not compatible in DIBAS right off the bat without
    some changes which is why for now everything is version controlled. In
    gerneral though if DIBAS is still GBOs primary way to interface and
    opearte as a facility instrument then BeamformerBackend.py and relevant
    configuration scripts (e.g., dibas.conf and filter coefficients) may be
    the only thing that needs to be version controlled.
    
    Also, when BeamformerBackend was developed it built off a lot of how
    VEGAS was accomplished and so there are also dependinces on the Vegas
    scripts (many of which are not fully understood or worked out) and so
    removing those may result in some errors.
