I'm also expecting for this since GRADS 2.0 was first released (more than a year ago). I wonder if the old <a href="http://philo2.gs">philo2.gs</a> script (which I customized) can be used with libmf from opengrads to plot the H/L letters?<br>

<div style="">THU 28MAY09: 1540PDT<div><br></div><div>Hi All</div><div><br></div><div>The only item still standing in the way of using GRADS 2.0 100% is the lack of UDFs. Arlindo da Silva's opengrads has made great strides in incorporating many of the previously very useful UDFs used in GRads versions before 2.0.</div>
<div><br></div><div>One of these is Mike Fiorino's clhilo UDF package that plots actual H and L letters on maps. Has any progress been made to include this in the opengrads version of 2.0? </div><div><br></div><div>I know Mike has issued libmf.gex (<a href="http://opengrads.org/doc/udxt/libmf/" target="_blank">http://opengrads.org/doc/udxt/libmf/</a>) for version 2.0 opengrads, however, I don't see how it can be used to plot actual H an L on GRADS plots? </div>
<div><br></div><div>Any news on this would be greatly appreciated. We'd like to totally migrate to GRADS 2.0 but this is our last issue.</div><div><br></div><div>Many thanks.</div><div><br><div> <div style=""><div><div>

<br></div><div>If you have the opengrads bundle installed, the shapefile extension can do this. Try:</div><div><br></div><div>ga-> open model.ctl</div> <div>ga-> set lon -140 -40</div><div>ga-> set lat 45 75</div>
<div>ga-> set mpdraw off</div><div>ga-> d ps</div><div>ga-> shp_lines admin98</div><div><br></div><div>You should get a plot like the attachment. You can read more about the shapefile extension here:</div> <div><br>
</div><div> <a href="http://opengrads.org/doc/udxt/shape/" target="_blank">http://opengrads.org/doc/udxt/shape/</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>You also provide your own shapefile instead of the sample admin98 one that is included.</div>
