Hi, I have a new Win32 build at http://opengrads.org/pre-rel/win32/grads-1.9.0-rc.win32_superpack.exe that I hope fixes several of the issues some of you have reported: 1) Xmin should now start automatically (meaning some of the mods I made could solve this problem that some of you had). 2) The "!" command in grads should work 3) The "^" as in "DSET ^filename" in ctl files should work now 4) Other niceties: Setup.exe type of installation, PATH is now set automatically, can be uninstalled from control pannel. A main change is that the suggested default installation directory is "C:\GrADS19", so that v2 could later be installed under C:\GrADS20. I plan to post this new build on sf.net in the next couple of days, unless I hear from you of major problems. BTW, despite the Setup.exe installation, the whole package should still be relocatable to mem stick or whatever. Let me know of any problems. Thank you, Arlindo -- Arlindo da Silva da...@al... |

Oops! My mistake, I did a fresh build in the end and forgot to include the
extensions. I just refresh the .exe file. Would you try it again? I'd
recommend:
- Stop Xming (right click on the little X at lower right hand corner &
select "Exit")
- Uninstall from [Start]/[GrADS 1.9] menu (you would help me test if this is
working)
- Reinstall
The extensions should be there this time. This is good beta testing at
work!
Thanks,

Hi Arlindo,
I was able to uninstall the previous version (one without gex files), no
problem, then installed the updated version (rc1, not rc; assume it
doesn't matter since they were the same size and date stamp). It started
without a hitch and was able to use gxyat, re, etc. although I'm brand new
to those utilities. I'm also looking forward to your response on the
read-file issue I mentioned the other day (Feb 22nd, subject "Re: Win32
Binaries in v1.9.0-rc1").
Although I've never used Python, down the road I may download the newly
available pygrads you mentioned. Thanks for making it and the grads19
available for win32 users!

New Win32 GrADS build
Hi,
I have a new Win32 build at
http://opengrads.org/pre-rel/win32/grads-1.9.0-rc.win32_superpack.exe
that I hope fixes several of the issues some of you have reported:
1) Xmin should now start automatically (meaning some of the mods I made
could solve this problem that some of you had).
2) The "!" command in grads should work
3) The "^" as in "DSET ^filename" in ctl files should work now
4) Other niceties: Setup.exe type of installation, PATH is now set
automatically, can be uninstalled from control pannel.
A main change is that the suggested default installation directory is
"C:\GrADS19", so that v2 could later be installed under C:\GrADS20. I plan
to post this new build on sf.netin the next couple of days, unless I hear
from you of major problems.
BTW, despite the Setup.exe installation, the whole package should still be
relocatable to mem stick or whatever.
Let me know of any problems.

Dear Mr Arlindo,
Thank you.
The outcome of my testing your
grads-1.9.0-rc.win32_superpack.exe is as follows:-
(1) as compared with you zip package, I have to
select grads classic or grads netCDF-3 or netCDF-4 in
order to run .grb or .nc file appropriately. [In your
zip package, I just type grads in the command window
and run either .grb or .nc file easily.]
(2) q udft shows no listing of the table at all.
(3) your gex folder in win32 is empty.
(4) when I run your utFish.gs, 'psi', 'chi',
'fish' are shown as not a variable or function name.
(5) when I tried you re() function, re is shown to
be not a variable or function name. Also, gxyat is an
unknown command.
Lastly, yesterday I emailed you that I am
puzzled by the streamfunction output by using fish().
The pattern, as compared with an example from an
article, looks similar but the signs and magnitudes
are vastly different. I am pleased to reproduce below
my email text with the attached example for your
consideration and help.
--------------------------------
Dear Mr Arlindo da Silva,
For days, I have been puzzled by the output of
streamfunction using your fish() in the GrADS
v1.9.0-rc1 (windows). By chance, I happened to see a
700 hPa streamfunction example in an article on Afican
Easterly Wave. I used the NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis data
to reproduce the example shown. As shown in my
attachment, you can notice the followings:-
(1) Both patterns look similar.
(2) The signs and magnitudes of streamfunction
generated from GrADS are vastly different from those
in the example figure.
(3) In the GrADS generated example, values west
of 0 degree longitude are absent.
Where did I go wrong ? Please help.
------------------------
Thank you and best regards.

Why? Just start a cmd.exe and type "grads", it should work the same way as
before. The
"GrADS 1.9" menu under [Start]/[All Programs] is just an extra convenience.

See previous message, I forgot to include the extensions the first time
around. Download a fresh copy and reinstall. It should be there now.

All, I have my first win32 build of GrADS v2. The packaging is similar to what I had done for v1.9.0-rc1, with both a self installing .exe and a .zip file. These can be found here: http://opengrads.org/devel/grads2/grads-2.0.a3.oga.1.win32_superpack.exe http://opengrads.org/devel/grads2/grads-2.0.a3.oga.1.win32_superpack.zip If you have a chance to try it out, please let me know if it works. These are supposed to be relocatable. Because v2 does not support it yet, there are no extensions included. Thank you, Arlindo -- Arlindo da Silva da...@al... |

Guys,
I just refreshed the binaries to include the most recent front end I
have been using for v1.9.0-rc1. The [Start] menu also includes GrADS
GUI with starts with an Athena GUI.

Dear Mr Arlindo da Silva,
Thank you.
I notice that the X-server window is larger than the 1.9 rc1 version [I prefer the old one so that I can have my command and GrADS windows placing nicely in one screen]. So far, I did not encounter any problems in running some of my scripts. However, can you let Xming exit automatically after quiting GrADS ? Will keep you informed if I do come across some problems later on.
Regards.

This is a question for Jennifer; I believe the default size of the
initial window has changed in GrADS v2. I did not do anything special
for the Win32 build.
> So far, I did not encounter any problems in running some of my scripts. However, can you let Xming exit automatically after quiting GrADS ?
Hmm.... This is not as simple to implement as you might think. By
default, if you have several instances of GrADS running simultaneously
they all share the same X server. So, if you kill Xming on exit, you
have to make sure there is no other process using it. I'll think about
it.
> Will keep you informed if I do come across some problems later on.
As always, thank you very much for your feedback.
