The ExtData resource file can have 3 types of entries, a Primary Export section, a Derived Export section, and a Mask section. The file itself is processed sequentially so that it can have any number of Primary, Derived, and Mask sections. Each of these sections is a list of single line entries. Each entry describes how to supply a variable of a given name with data. The tables currently use %% instead of the standard :: identifiers because of an odd behaviour in ESMF.
