[GEMPAK #YMZ-692829]: Gempack

Hi Steve,

Unidata provides GEMPAK at no cost, but the software is only supported on 
Unix-type systems (Linux, SunOS, Mac OS X and others).  While there has been 
some success in the past compiling on Windows system, such a task requires the 
Cygwin software interface, and the steps to making GEMPAK work in such an 
environment are numerous and not straight-forward at all, which is why we have 
decided against offering a package and support for Windows.

Not the answer you were hoping for, I imagine, but GEMPAK/NAWIPS really is a 
Unix-system-only piece of software.

Best,

Michael James
Unidata
