Sorry to bother you again.. Quick question:I have seen a problem where Albany won't update for hours at a time. When piping the output through by hand (instead of using it with ldm) i noticed that it would only convert the first METAR:
^C^A^M^M
252 ^M^M
SAUS80 KWBC 121900 RRA^M^M
METAR^M^M

---------------
I think the culprit is this line of code:
}
# undefine vars
undefinevars() ;
--> # &atexit( "eof" ) if( eof( STDIN ) ) ;
} # end foreach report
} # end while( 1 )
-----
I am not the best of perl hackers (perl book in hand) but I think this
would be that it checks STDIN each time through the loop of reports even
tho there are another 3 reports in the '@report' array, and of course
since it is a pipe it is quick and already read all of the data and is at
EOF. Does this make sense? Also could this be my problem with LDM?
