[GEMPAK #NVD-552590]: ensemble plotting

Heather,

Line 316 in datatype.tbl defines the alias {ens}
ENS          $MODEL/ens                ens_YYYYMMDDHH_*                         
        CAT_GRD  SCAT_FCT   -1     -1     -1      OFF/0/0      4

the third column is the filename template, defined as ens_YYYYMMDDHH_*, so 
GEMPAK is looking for files which match "ls -la $MODEL/ens/ens_YYYYMMDDHH_{NN}" 
where {NN} is the ensemble member number.  This will not match any files!  Your 
files are named ens_2010120505_1.gem, ens_2010120505_2.gem and 
ens_2010120505_3.gem


here is how you should set your files and directories:

1) in datatype.tbl modify the ENS line to
ENS          $MODEL/ens                ens_YYYYMMDDHH_*.gem                     
            CAT_GRD  SCAT_FCT   -1     -1     -1      OFF/0/0      4

2) in $MODEL/ens/ make sure the files are named ens_2010120505_01.gem, 
ens_2010120505_02.gem and ens_2010120505_03.gem

3) then re-run your gdplot script.
