[Blacklight-development] more little importer tricks - another small fix

[Jonathan Rochkind]

Thanks for this important note too Naomi!  I never would have figured 
that out myself I don't think.

Once I get a succesful import, I'll commit changes to the various 
READMEs so that they include all the necessary instructions to actually 
get it to work.

If UVa could send me a "known-good" .mrc file including sufficient 
records to test out the UVa Blacklight setup (including musical records 
for the music interface), that would be convenient.  That is, a file 
that UVa has gotten to succesfully import. Otherwise, I'm still using 
the file of around 1000 records that Bess at one point sent me, which 
I'd think should be "known good", but you never know.

If I'm lucky, I'll get a succesful import at least from sample 
known-good data, if not from my own data, today.
