+# This script is removing lock files which are older than 12 hours. 
+# 
+# Each process in the automatic analysis is writing a lock file. As these 
+# processes are launched with condor, they are stopped after 12 hours, if 
+# they are still running. In this case the lock files are not removed. 
+# 
+# By comparing the date of the lock file and the current date, the 
+# running time of a process is determined and if it is bigger than 12 
+# hours (which means that the process has been already kill by condor) the 
+# lock file is removed
