    Read in csv files that have the right header information and

    Each file represents a location and within each file there are

    For example:    
    if "directories_dic" defines 4 directories and in each directories
    there is a csv files corresponding to the right "plot_numbers",

            This will produce one plot for each quantity (therefore 3) in the
            current directory, each plot will have 2 lines on them. The first
            plot named 'new' will have the time offseted by 20secs and the stage
            height adjusted by -0.1m
        
    Inputs:
        directories_dic: dictionary of directory with values (plot 
                         legend name for directory), (start time of 
                         the time series) and the (value to add to 
                         stage if needed). For example
                         {dir1:['Anuga_ons',5000, 0],
                          dir2:['b_emoth',5000,1.5],
                          dir3:['b_ons',5000,1.5]}
                         Having multiple directories defined will plot them on 
                         one plot, therefore there will be 3 lines on each of
                         these plot. If you only want one line per plot call
                         csv2timeseries_graph separately for each directory,
                         eg only have one directory in the 'directories_dic' in
                         each call. 
                         
        output_dir: directory for the plot outputs. Only important to define when
                    you have more than one directory in your directories_dic, if
                    you have not defined it and you have multiple directories in
                    'directories_dic' there will be plots in each directory,
                    however only one directory will contain the complete
                    plot/graphs.
        
        base_name: Is used a couple of times.
                   1) to find the csv files to be plotted if there is no
                      'plot_numbers' then csv files with 'base_name' are plotted
                   2) in the title of the plots, the length of base_name is 
                      removed from the front of the filename to be used in the
                      title. 
                   This could be changed if needed. 
                   Note is ignored if assess_all_csv_files=True
        
        plot_numbers: a String list of numbers to plot. For example 
                      [0-4,10,15-17] will read and attempt to plot
                      the follow 0,1,2,3,4,10,15,16,17
                      NOTE: if no plot numbers this will create one plot per
                            quantity, per gauge

        quantities: Will get available quantities from the header in the csv

    Inputs: 
        NOTE: if using csv2timeseries_graphs after creating csv file,
        it is essential to export quantities 'depth' and 'elevation'.
        'depth' is good to analyse gauges on land and elevation is used
        automatically by csv2timeseries_graphs in the legend.
        
        sww_file: path to any sww file
        
        gauge_file: Assumes that it follows this format
            name, easting, northing, elevation
            point1, 100.3, 50.2, 10.0
            point2, 10.3, 70.3, 78.0
        
        NOTE: order of column can change but names eg 'easting', 'elevation' 
        must be the same! ALL lowercaps!

        out_name: prefix for output file name (default is 'gauge_')
        
    Outputs: 
        one file for each gauge/point location in the points file. They
        will be named with this format in the same directory as the 'sww_file'
            <out_name><name>.csv
        eg gauge_point1.csv if <out_name> not supplied
           myfile_2_point1.csv if <out_name> ='myfile_2_'
            
        They will all have a header

    Interpolate the quantities at a given set of locations, given
    an sww file.
    The results are written to a csv file.

    In the future let points be a points file.
    And the user choose the quantities.

    This is currently quite specific.
    If it needs to be more general, change things.

    This is really returning speed, not velocity.
