Create Overshoot Section File

This command allows the user to create an overshoot section file using an existing .SCT section file and an existing rock section file. The existing .SCT file must be read, then an existing rock section file (.SCT) needs to be chosen. The new overshoot section file and file name will then be written. An overshoot drop depth is the key prompt in this command, along with the values for the beginning and the final stations. This will begin the processing of this routine and create the new data.
