Dear Elio,

> /*pull*/
>
> To retrieve information provided by the GrADS user via the terminal 
> (standard input), use the |pull| command:
>
>     |pull /variable/| 
>
> The script will pause for user input from the keyboard (ending with 
> the carriage return), and then the string entered by the user is 
> assigned to the indicated variable name. To elaborate on a previous 
> example:
>
> |'open my_sst_dataset.ctl'
> prompt 'Enter min and max latitudes: '
> pull minlat maxlat
> prompt 'Enter min and max longitudes: '
> pull minlon maxlon
> 'set lat 'minlat%' '%maxlat
> 'set lon 'minlon' 'maxlon
> 'display sst' |

     Hope this helps!

Cheers,
Bob
