Fido is the main script driver for adaptive sampling (along with the
administrative processes necessary) on Folding@home.

See the script fido.py for the top-level stuff.

A note about class hierarchies: in fido.py, there is a call

	config = FidoTools.FidoConfig()

The Fido Configuration Parser, FidoConfig(), reads a config file (default
"fidoconfig") which contains the data for how to deal with particular 
projects. These currently look like lines in a file:

	name=4007_1 conf=densign/4007/project4007.conf min=1000 add=100

For each entry in fidoconfig, the parser will load up a FidoProject object.
A FidoProject object contains a Folding@home project as represented with
FAHProject(), and some other settings for adaptive analysis.

fidoprojects is an object with the following attributes:
	list containing FidoProject objects
	dictionary returning list elements with project names as keys

Each FidoProject object contains:
	a FAHProject object
	other settings, like min, add, previous number, ...
