Mike, The general library routines are in gemlib.a, but program specific routines (ie subroutines that aren't generally useful to other programs are in the programs directories). The library files you fine like gdcntr.a are left there since Garp needs those routines. Otherwise, "make clean" removes those libraries. So to regenerate gdcfil.a for instance, cd $GEMPAKHOME/src/programs/gd/gdcfil make all or if you need several to be built: cd $GEMPAKHOME/src/programs/gd make all The libraries will be build in $GEMLIB again. If you need projection specific routines, they may be in gplt.a. Let me know if you can't find something.
