g2gdf.pl in GrADS1.9

[Mark Sponsler]

Using Grads1.9 Win32 superpack (non-self installing) ver 4/6/08 off a
flash drive on a machine which I do not have admin rights...

While playing with the new g2gdf.pl extension in Grads1.9, received the
following error trying to read a grib2 file:


>set PATH=c:\Program Files\PCGrADS19\win32

>g2gdf.pl -o c:\grib\input_new\multi_1.gdf  -I
c:\grib\input_new\multi_1.inv c:\grib\input_new\multi_1.wc_4m.t12z.grib2

   g2gdf - control file/inventory for "g2" extension

         Descriptor: c:\grib\input_new\multi_1.gdf
          Inventory: c:\grib\input_new\multi_1.inv
           Data Dir: c:\grib\input_new\
         Grib files: multi_1.wc_4m.t12z.grib2

cannot create c:\grib\input_new\multi_1.gdf --- is g2ctl.pl on path? at
c:\Program Files\PCGrADS19\win32\g2gdf.pl line 52.

All the other apps seem to work fine when using the 'set PATH' command.

Maybe something needs to be 'virtualized' in g2gdf.pl?
