Klein >Webmaster >Valparaiso University >--------------------- > Bill, It sounds like you downloaded the binary distribution of GEMPAK. If so, then there is nothing to build. The executables are in the $GEMEXE directory (defined when you source the Gemenviron file after editing the NAWIPS variable in that file). The build instructions on the GEMPAK web site are for building the executables from the source distribution, which contains the full source code trees. Steve Chiswell
