Hi SJ,

re:
> WOW!

I always like emails that begin with WOW! :-)

re:
> How great not to see all the crash reports :)

We agree wholeheartedly.

re:
> Thanks so much for all this progress!

No worries.  Hopefully Michael can find the latent bug in dcncprof
and get it fixed soon so your data processing can be complete.

By the way, the ldm-mcidas wind profiler decoder, proftomd, uses
a number of the same routines that GEMPAK's dcncprof uses (Steve
Chiswell wrote the code to be shared between the two applications).
Just to see if there was something weird with MacOS-X wrt wind
profiler processing, I tried decoding wind profiler data (which
is in the IDD FSL2 datastream) into McIDAS-compatible format
(a McIDAS MDXX file).  The fact that this attempt worked with no
problems demonstrated to us that there must be a subtle bug in
dcncprof that shows up under MacOS-X but not other supported
OSes.
 
Cheers,

Tom
