Louis,

I was on vacation last week, so delayed response here.  The NetCDF-decoders 
package is being deprecated
for a new Java package because it's easier to install and much more flexible. 

To use the Java Grib libraries:

One needs to download the toolsUI.jar from the netCDF java page,
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/


set the classpath and run Grib2Netcdf from a script similar to:


#/bin/csh -f


set CP="<yourpathtoo>toolsUI-2.2.22.jar"


java -Xmx512m -classpath $CP ucar.nc2.iosp.grib.Grib2Netcdf INPUT OUTPUT.NC


Don't forget to add the INPUT grib file and OUTPUT.NC names.


robb...


ps  if the conversion didn't work, you can look at the data with the
ToolUI program by:


java -Xmx512m -classpath $CP ucar.nc2.ui.ToolsUI
