Do the .set files and .hist files in /u/prog/curdir/changer/inmrchanger
help? They
contain both the total acquisition time in the .set file, and the submission
time
in the .hist file. The .set file only contains one entry per holder. So, to
extract
the completion time, you need the holder number from the .set file, and
then the last entry for that holder in the .hist file for the submission
time.
