Brent and Paula,

I have ported the gribinsert code to the current LDM distribution
(tgsv32 is running an old LDM-6.0.10 version compiled for AIX here
since it didn't have compilers).

I ported the code to eliminate the use of the fortran routines,
and placed the distribution tarfile as:

ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/gribinsert/gribinsert-1.1.tar.gz

The tarfile can be downloaded into the LDMHOME directory (typically
~ldm), and unpacked with "gunzip -c gribinsert.tar.gz | tar xvf - ".
This will create a gribinsert-1.1 directory.

your ~ldm/ directory would then contain the ldm-6.4.5 (for instance)
directory, the gribinsert-1.1 directory, and the runtime/ links
that you create when you install the LDM. If you haven't done this
for the LDM, you will nbeed to do this to build gribinsert:

in LDMHOME.....
ln -s ldm-6.4.5 runtime
ln -s runtime/src src
ln -s runtime/include include
ln -s runtime/bin bin
ln -s runtime/lib lib

then build and install gribinsert with:
cd gribinsert-1.1
make all install

If sucessful, you will install gribinsert into runtime/bin,
and some grib2 tables into LDMHOME/etc.

That should get us to the point where we were with tgsv32.

If you have trouble building gribinsert, let me know as I had to
build this locally and send for Allan (Francis Yang) to install in the
past, so I didn't have a distribution tar file set up previously.

Thanks!

Steve
