Hi there,

1) Open uwnd.nc and vwnd.nc files
2) Go "set gxout vector" for arrow/vector plots or "set gxout stream" for
streamlines
3) "d uwnd; vwnd.2", for magnitude-coloured vectors/streamlines go "d uwnd;
vwnd.2; mag(uwnd,vwnd.2)"

Also check out the documentation/tutorial before posting to the list, it's all
in there.
