Problem running day2pen.gs

[Huddleston, John]

The cp utility takes two arguments. In your script there is only one. There is a tilde in the line
'!cp 'mytmpdir'\day2pen.dat~'_.path.1'\'_.file.1'.dat'

Perhaps that is supposed to be a space?

Subject: Problem running day2pen.gs

Dear Grads Users,

I am running a function day2pen.gs on Windows( Grads V 2.0.a7.oga.3 ) to
regrid daily data to pentad data. When I run it, I get the following error
message:

cp: missing destination file operand after
`c:\windows\temp\day2pen.dat~.olr_pen.dat'
Try `cp --help' for more information.
Open Error:  Can't open binary data file
  File name = \day2pen.dat~

See attached day2pen.gs and the driving code (penta.gs)

Any fix for this problem?


Thanks
