<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Lara,</div><div><br></div><div>There are a number of approaches, and not knowing the specifics, its hard to know how to advise best:</div><div><br></div><div>- if "print"ing is otherwise working for you, and there are no other superfluous print statements in the script, perhaps something like "ncl -Q myscript.ncl >myAsciiFile.txt" (The -Q suppresses the printing of the version and copyright info).</div><div><br></div><div>- Alternatively, create a NetCDF file from the GRIB file, and then use ncdump or some other NetCDF tool to dump the contents. Creating NetCDF from NCL is pretty easy:</div><div><br></div><div> <a href="http://ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/list_io.shtml">http://ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/list_io.shtml</a></div><div><br></div><div>- Finally, if the files are fairly large in binary form, they will of course be considerably larger in ASCII form: i) NCL's string handling in the face of large amounts of string data is notoriously bad, ii) reading large amounts of ASCII data can be slow, iii) is there a good reason to prefer ASCII over, say, NetCDF (its an honest question -- if the answer is "yes", then yes!).</div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps...</div><div>Rick<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Jun 3, 2019 at 5:29 AM Lara Quitián Hernández <<a href="mailto:laraquitianhernandez@gmail.com">laraquitianhernandez@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi, <div><br></div><div>I have just verified it.
