Dear Arlindo and others,
I installed the OpenGrADS bundle 2.0.a9.oga.1 on Windows Vista. After starting opengrads, the program opens a display, but then automatically quits with an "[EOF]" message. See the output below.
I am running cygwin on my computer, so I first tried the OpenGrads package for cygwin-users, but also installing the superpack and running opengrads with XMing gave the same result. I have an earlier version of opengrads (v2.0.a7.oga.3) installed which works fine.
Can anybody help?
Best regards,
Stefan

>
> http://opengrads.org
>
> GrADS Version 2.0.a9
> Released 03 October 2010
>
> This OpenGrADS version is based on COLA's 2.0.a9 release with very
> minor updates in the OpenGrADS extensions. See below for the
> OpenGrADS features that extend the standard GrADS functionality
> provided by COLA.
>
> As for the new functionality in the COLA release we quote from Jennifer
> Adams' announcement of GrADS v2.0.a9:
>
> "This new release has a rather long list of new features and bug fixes;
> many of these were implemented as a result of requests or reports from
> users (including the recent revelation of junk bytes at the beginning
> of some grib files). Thanks for your valuable input! Please see
> http://iges.org/grads/changelog-2.0.txt for the complete list. I
> recommend you look carefully at the change log if you are going to use
> 2.0.a9.
>
> There is a new GIS interface for creating shapefiles with contours
> (from gridded data) or points (from station or gridded data sets). New
> commands are set gxout shp, set shp, clear shp, set shpattr, and q
> shpopts. Please read the shapefiles documentation -- it will guide you
> to the reference pages for all the new commands and gives some
> examples (including images) of how to use this new capability.
>
> To write out a KML file containing contours, use the new option '-ln'
> to set kml. The option to create a KML file with contours does not
> require any extra libraries and will always be enabled.
>
> There are three new template substitution string options, for forecast
> times expressed in minutes, hours+minutes, or
> days+hours+minutes. Documentation page templates has been updated with
> more detailed information.
>
> There are two new startup options to use when invoking GrADS:
> -a sets the aspect ratio of the graphics page, so you are no longer
> limited to 8.5 x 11 or 11 x 8.5.
> -C enables colorization of the text in the command window
> Please see http://iges.org/grads/gadoc/gradcomdgrads.html
>
> Files that are templated on E but not T do not have to be padded with
> missing data if ensembles do not have same start/end times. This is
> for binary and SDF formats, it was never necessary for grib data."
>
> OpenGrADS Features
> ------------------
>
> Several other important OpenGrADS additions are available with this
> version:
>
> - this is an OpenGrADS Bundle release, a relocatable, minimum
> configuration package that has all that you need to run GrADS. See
> INSTALL for additonal information.
>
> - preview release of the OpenGrADS Extensions; the same extensions
> available in GrADS v1.9.0-rc1 are now available with GrADS v2.0.
>
> Caveat: as COLA is yet to publish the official API for User Defined
> functions in GrADS v2.0 we have adopted here an API that
> is based on our work vith v1.9.0-rc1. This is a very low-level
> API that is *not* endorsed by COLA. As such, it is *not*
> advisable
> that users adopt this API to write their own extensions.
>
> - These extensions are still being fully tested. Please report any
> problems
> you encounter. Use them at your own risk.
>
> - The following extensions are included: see below.
