Hi Gilbert, re: use 'notifyme' to determine the pattern you need/want first > Thanks, Tom. That was so long as to be confusing. The short and sweet answer: use 'notifyme' _first_ to determine the pattern you should use in an LDM pattern-action file. > I'm still getting nothing with this: > > CONDUIT data/nccf/com/ruc/.*(20......)..F(001) OK, the pattern is not quite right. The following does work: CONDUIT data/nccf/com/ruc/.*(20......)....F(001) Try it: notifyme -vl- -f CONDUIT -h idd.unidata.ucar.edu -o 1000000 -p 'data/nccf/com/ruc/.*(20......)....F(001)' I just ran it and it works fine. Comment: - this will put all 1-hour forecast fields from all model runs into a single, daily file Is this what you want? It seems strange, but what the hey. Perhaps this would be better? CONDUIT data/nccf/com/ruc/.*(20........)..F(001) FILE hrs/ruc/\1.conduit This will put all 1-hour forecast fields from a single run into the same file. To me this seems more reasonable, but I don't really know what you are trying to accomplish, so what the hey :-) re: > Even though it is in the pattern. I guess I'll have to keep playing > around with it. The hour field was missing from the pattern. Just remember, 'notifyme' is your friend :-) Cheers, Tom -- **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
