Define Command and Wind Vector

[Davide Sacchetti]

the syntax define test = skip(ave(u,t=1,t=10),5,5);ave(v,t=1,t=10) is
wrong:
I'm not sure you can define over a skip command, but anyway, for sure,
you can only define one variable each time, not two  ...
Than the correct syntax is:
define utest = .....
define vtest = .....
display utest;vtest

Hoping it helps
bye bye
