20050621: 20050620: Gempak install on Fedora Core 3

Tome,

the GUIs expect to find the data in the directory and file names
defined in $GEMTBL/config/datatype.tbl.

For example, ETA/NAM grid 211 is searched for by the "ETA" entry
in NMAP2 and Garp in the datatype.tbl file, and the entry
there expects the data to be located in files named:
$MODEL/eta/YYYYMMDDHH_eta211.gem

These are also the corresponding locations to the decoder
defaults provided in the $NAWIPS/ldm/etc/templates/pqact.gempak_decoders.in
and $GEMTBL/grid/gribkey.tbl files.

if you choose to use a different naming convention, the 2 tables mentions
above (and your pqact.conf entries if necessary) should be consistent.
