Tom,

Verify that your GEMDATA environmental variable is correctly defined
in Gemenviron (and/or Gemenviron.profile). Since NMAP2 shows no data in the
data source window, it sounds like either:
1) The GEMDATA directory isn't correctly defined
2) The $GEMTBL location isn't pointing to the current/correct version location

Yes, the fdf directories do have to be renamed to match the model keys used.

Since your decoders are creating the $GEMDATA/model subdirectories,
it seems like a problem with the environmental variables  for
the display environment.
