Welcome to $BFROOT (also known as /afs/slac.stanford.edu/g/babar).
This is the root of all BABAR collaboration code.

This disk area is backed up - but only in a format meant to be used in
case of catastrophic disk failure, i.e. not to retrieve files you
accidentally removed.  (Users are encouraged to archive individual
files/directories of interest to them using other means, such as
"wdsf" or direct tape backup.)

The organization of this disk space is as follows below.  Note that
within AFS individual directories may have different protections; you
will see this as you browse the BFROOT tree.  (To see how a particular
directory is protected, issue the "fs la" command.)  Within a
particular directory in which you have permission to write or delete,
remember to clean up any trash you may leave behind, and that it is
bad form to remove other people's files, so please be careful.

Note to remote BABAR users: $BFROOT contains many directories, some of
which are relevant to running BABAR code (reconstruction, simulation
or online), others are of use only to SLAC users, while others are a
miscellany of odd bits.  In general, the directories that will be of
potential interest to remote collaborators (e.g. for code management
access or mirroring) are indicated with a star "*" in the explanations
below.  Others should not be copied/mirrored unless it is known to be
of interest and known not to contain licensed software.

Quick guide to main $BFROOT subdirectories:

bin	- binary executables and scripts (bin.xxx = architecture-dependent)
