DCFFG
DCFFG decodes flash flood guidance data from a real-time data
feed, or from a file fed to the program through standard input, and
writes the data to a GEMPAK surface file. The program is controlled
by inputs to the command line.
The inputs are program options and the output file name or template.
For example, for real-time data feeds:
dcffg [options] output_file
If running the program interactively with standard input, the -c
option must be used. The input file must be also be specified.
For example:
dcffg -c YYMMDD/HHNN [other_options] output_file < input_file
A template may be used to specify the output file name. The file
name template uses the date and time of the bulletin or report
to replace the following characters.
YY Year without the century
MM Month number
DD Day
HH Hour
NN Minute
