Hi Phil,.
What I do with the SPC GRID's is have a pqact.conf line watch for one
of the files that gets sent out,
then with a EXEC line trigger a shell script to run my GRIB decoder and
create the maps
file the data for me
HDS ^(......) KWNS.*!grib2
FILE -overwrite -close data/text/grib/spc/\1.bin
Trigger the GRIB conversion and map routines
HDS ^LDIZ17 KWNS.*!grib2
EXEC decoders/spc1grib.sh
Depending on how much data is in the GRIB files,
I normally will have the new Maps on site before the SPC does

All-
I'm searching for a ideas to display model data more timely. On our
current setup, we simply wait until all data has arrived and then have
a script run in the cron that processes and plots all of our model
data. However, I would like to post these plots in a more timely
manner, preferably as they arrive. I've come up with a few ideas, but
none of them seem very efficient. I'm assuming GEMPAK does not have a
program that can output grids that are currently available. Does
anyone have any ideas (perhaps a listening script)? Any help would be
great,
Thank you,
