Hi,

re:
> Is there a GEMPAK version for Windows?  Please send me a direct link.

No, there is no native version of GEMPAK for Windows.  We typically
advise Windows users who want to use applications that don't run
natively under Windows to run a Linux virtual machine (VM) under
Windows and then run the package(s) in the VM.  We do this routinely
here in Unidata, and we mostly use CentOS 6.x Linux and VMware Player
for the virtualization environment.

Cheers,

Tom
