Adam,

>Well, to make it easier(i guess).

It will in the long run; trust me...

Will do.  In order to keep the number of emails down to a minimum, I
will wait until all mods have been made before sending you the complete
blow-by-blow.

>I have

>I have been doing the best i could.  Any help is appreciated.

It is not that you were doing anything bad/terrible, because you
weren't.  It was just that if we could get you setup in the way that
documentation is written and the GEMPAK distribution is setup, then
doing upgrades in the future will be easy.

>Basically,

Will do.  As far as a timeframe, I am working on the McIDAS stuff right
now.  Chiz will jump in and tune up the GEMPAK installation/LDM setup
for running GEMPAK deccoders.  We have the User Committee meeting
tomorrow and Friday, but it should be done by Monday sometime (and
maybe sooner).

>Thanks

No worries.
