You should use the following to email all tsunami warnings:

IDS|DDPLUS    ^(WE....) .... [0-3][0-9][0-2][0-9][0-5][0-9]
        PIPE    -strip -close /usr/bin/mailx -s "TSU NOTICE \1" address@hidden

Here's an example of filing tsunami warnings:

IDS|DDPLUS    ^WE.... .... ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9])
        FILE    -flush data/gempak/nwx/seismic/(\1:yyyy)(\1:mm)(\1:dd)\2.tsuww

The "(\1:dd)" is necessary because people make mistakes and sometimes enter, 
for example, a "31" for the day after September 30th.

Steve Emmerson
