# HISTORY AND THINGS TO FIX  #

#2015.04.02 - Updated script to use argparse and added option to exclude local-specific 
#			  module imports
#2015.04.10 - Added default import of subprocess and fixed how argparse commands were being
#			  printed.
#2015.04.16 - Added import of numpy and os modules. Tweaked output of base script.
