[Mesa-users] Add a new formula for overshooting

[Warrick Ball]

Hi Plume,

This sounds like something to implement using `run_star_extras.f`, which 
is an extra source file that MESA uses to allow you to call extra 
functions in your structure models.

To learn how to use `run_star_extras.f`, I'd suggest you first read the 
information on the main MESA webpage:

http://mesa.sourceforge.net/run_star_extras.html

In addition, you should look at the material under "Education" at the MESA 
market place:

http://cococubed.asu.edu/mesa_market/education.html

Josiah Schwab's summer school lectures will be a good resource.  Many of 
the other class/exercises from the summer school make use of 
`run_star_extras.f` too, though I can't say which do or don't without 
downloading and extracting them all.

Cheers,
Warrick
