+A template for adding new modules to MCMICRO
+
+Step 1: Add module specs to config/defaults.yml
+
+  a: Add a flag specifying whether the module should be run to workflow:
+  b: Add default module options to options:
+  c: Add module name and container specs to modules:
+
+  For example, support we wanted to add a module that produces a QC report
+    about the signal-to-noise ratio (snr). The three additions to defaults.yml
+    may then look as follows:
+
+  workflow:
+    report: false
+  options:
+    snr: --cool-parameter 42
+  modules:
+    report:
+      name: snr
+      container: myorganization/snr
+      version: 1.0.0
+
+Step 2: Modify the code below as needed
+
+Step 3: Run the module from the main workflow in main.nf
+
+  a: add an include statement to import the relevant workflow. For example:
+
+    ...
+    include {downstream}     from "$projectDir/modules/downstream"
+    include {viz}            from "$projectDir/modules/viz"
+    include {report}         from "$projectDir/modules/report"   // <- importing the new module
+  
+  b: add a statement calling the module near the bottom of the main workflow:
+
+    ...
+    downstream(mcp, sft)
+
+    report(mcp, allimg, sft)     // <- calling the new module
+
+    // Vizualization
+    viz(mcp, allimg)
+    ...
+
+*/
+
+// Import utility functions from lib/mcmicro/*.groovy
+import mcmicro.*
+
+// Process name will appear in the the nextflow execution log
+// While not strictly required, it's a good idea to make the 
+//   process name match your tool name to avoid user confusion
+process gatorpy {
+
+    // Use the container specification from the parameter file
+    // No change to this line is required
+    container "${params.contPfx}${module.container}:${module.version}"
+
+    // Specify the project subdirectory for writing the outputs to
+    // The pattern: specification must match the output: files below
+    // TODO: replace report with the desired output directory
+    // TODO: replace the pattern to match the output: clause below
+    publishDir "${params.in}/gator", mode: 'copy', pattern: "GATOR/*"

+    //   to the project provenance
+    // No change to this line is required
+    publishDir "${Flow.QC(params.in, 'provenance')}", mode: 'copy', 
+      pattern: '.command.{sh,log}',
+      saveAs: {fn -> fn.replace('.command', "${module.name}-${task.index}")}
+    
+    // Inputs for the process
