20000801: SAT/RAD YYYY problems in Garp

Tom,

I think I have duplicated you problem by placing both prod_yymmdd_hhmm and
prod_yyyymmdd_hhmm in the same directories. The problem is probably that the
yymmdd files don't match the YYYYMMDD template, so things are getting confused.

We can probably clear up the problem with a quick script to rename your old 
files to 4 digits.

Here is a quick csh script I call: renameyy.csh
It recursively calls itself, so the path inside needs to be changed to
where it is found on disk ....the top of the sat tree in this example.
cd to $SAT and run the script from that directory. It will traverse the tree,
and for files that have the _ character in them, it will rename them by
adding the 20 in front of the 00 if they have 00 following the first _
in the name. It will leave your current YYYY names alone, in addition to
any other files in the tree that don't match the pattern.

#!/bin/csh

set FILES=`ls`
foreach FILE ($FILES)
   if(-d $FILE) then
      echo $FILE
      cd $FILE
      /usr/local/ldm/data/gempak/images/sat/renameyy.csh
      cd ..
   else
      set FNAME=`echo $FILE | grep -c '_'`
      if($FNAME > 0) then
         set PART1=`echo $FILE | cut -f1 -d"_"`
         set PART2=`echo $FILE | cut -f2- -d"_"`
         set YY=`echo $PART2 | cut -c 1,2`
         if($YY == "00") then
            mv $FILE ${PART1}_20${PART2}
         endif
      else
         echo $FILE Does not match pattern
      endif
   endif
end

Let me know if this solves you trouble.
