[gradsusr] Help to get version 2.0.2 for windows

[egawa at met.kishou.go.jp]

Dear Anil and others,

I could complie GrADS under 64 bit Cygwin, though it is not OpenGrADS 
2.0.2 but GrADS 2.1.a1.

I can upload compiled programs to my server.
grads.exe and other programs do not use dynamic link libraries so you can 
execute it without supplibs.

Unfortunately, I use free-of-charge server and maximum file size is 
limited to 3 MB.
I divided TGZ file into four parts.

http://mc39.genin.jp/grads-2.1.a1-bin-x86_64-unknown-cygwin.tar.gz.1
http://mc39.genin.jp/grads-2.1.a1-bin-x86_64-unknown-cygwin.tar.gz.2
http://mc39.genin.jp/grads-2.1.a1-bin-x86_64-unknown-cygwin.tar.gz.3
http://mc39.genin.jp/grads-2.1.a1-bin-x86_64-unknown-cygwin.tar.gz.4

File size of each file is 2,510,283 bytes.

You need to execute,
$ cat grads-2.1.a1-bin-x86_64-unknown-cygwin.tar.gz.? > 
grads-2.1.a1-bin-x86_64-unknown-cygwin.tar.gz
$ tar xvzf grads-2.1.a1-bin-x86_64-unknown-cygwin.tar.gz
It includes grads.exe, stnmap.exe, bufrscan.exe, gribmap.exe, 
gribscan.exe, grib2scan.exe and wgrib.exe.
You also need to prepare the font and map files.

I made a Japanese website reporting how to compile GrADS 2.1.a1 under 64 
bit Cygwin.
http://mc39.genin.jp/GrADS2.1.a1_compile_memo.html
Though I know it is incorrect, you can use Google translator.
http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=ja&sl=ja&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fmc39.genin.jp%2FGrADS2.1.a1_compile_memo.html&sandbox=1
I will translate it if you request and I have time.

Best regards,
Takumu

Opengrads, where resources for creating builds are provided on a volunteer 
basis and are therefore extremely limited. I do have some inside 
information, however, that a new build of 2.1.a2 from COLA and Opengrads 
is in the works. I don't know exactly when the release will be ready…. 
the best I can offer is 'soon'.
