Hi Matthew,

Busy, busy, busy...  Sorry I couldn't get back to you on this yesterday.

Please give me access to the amps.grb file so I can take a look.  The
only thing that is remotely suspicious is the title you are specifying,
but even that looks OK.

No, gribdec works on all of the systems I support.

I run gribdec.k on Linux with no problems all of the time.

>Thanks Tom!

No worries.

>I hope all is well...

Outside of being way too busy, things are going well.
