4.1.0 GEMPAK User Interface Example

Start Program

% sflist                           

SFFILE    Surface data file                 $GEMDATA/HRCBOB.SFC
AREA      Data area                         WV
DATTIM    Date/time                         LAST
SFPARM    Surface parameter list            SKYC;TMPF;WSYM;PMSL;;DWPF;BRBK
OUTPUT    Output device/filename            T
IDNTYP    STNM or STID                      STID
Parameters requested: SFFILE,AREA,DATTIM,SFPARM,OUTPUT,IDNTYP.

Assign new values

GEMPAK-SFLIST>sffile = $GEMDATA/nmcbob.sfc 

GEMPAK-SFLIST>area = den

GEMPAK-SFLIST>sfparm = tmpf;dwpf

GEMPAK-SFLIST>phelp idntyp        
     IDNTYP
 
     IDNTYP sets character or numeric station identifiers to be used for
     input or output.  The valid values are STID and STNM.  STID specifies
     station character identifiers; STNM specifies station numbers.
 
     If the value in IDNTYP is not STNM, the default of STID will be used.
 
     For example, to update station headers in SFSTNS:
 
       IDNTYP =        STID -- compares character ids in file with those
                               in the station table
 
       IDNTYP =        STNM -- compares numeric ids in file with those
                               in the station table
