i was thinking that once I run a profile to the edge of the dataset, I
could go through and "prune" it with some simple algorithm. Obviously,
you could eliminate ticks that vary less than some delta. If someone
has a clever way, you could try to fit straight lines to "collections"
of points and replace them with the endpoints. But that's getting pretty
fancy..
I'll be happy when I can just retrieve the files and generate the
profiles in ANY form.
