[Vis5d-users] Re: appending

Hi Philip,

The description of 'v5dappend' in the vis5d README file
says that this utility "might be useful if your weather model
generates a separate .v5d file for each time step" - you can
concatenate these short files to a bigger one.
It does *not* seem to work for different variables on the same
time.
Instead I would try to use v5dimport. Just start 'v5dimport', open the
'Read File' menu. Select the first file - hit 'ok', select second
file - hit 'ok' and export all to a new file (type in the new filename
and hit the 'Make' button). This should also work for different grids.
and/or different times.
Regards,
Michael
