Re: embedded quotes and arrays ...

Dear Martin,

Thanks for your answer !
I tried as you said, but it still does not work with me. I get :

repeat/k=1:2 ( define symbol stat = station[i=`k`] ; define symbol oufile`k` = `($stat)`.irm.winter94.nc )
!-> repeat/k=1:2 ( define symbol stat = station[i=`k`] ; define symbol oufile`k` = ` `.irm.winter94.nc )
!-> REPEAT: K=1
!-> define symbol stat = station[i=1]
!-> define symbol oufile1 = bad.irm.winter94.nc
!-> REPEAT: K=2
!-> define symbol stat = station[i=2]
!-> define symbol oufile2 = bad.irm.winter94.nc

Don't know what's the problem! My Ferret version is 5.50, on Mac OS X :
NOAA/PMEL TMAP
FERRET v5.50  
apple-darwin6.3 - 02/08/03
30-Jun-04 12:31     

I already had noticed that define a symbol within a repeat command does not allow to use it within the same repeat command. At least with my version of Ferret.
I'm now trying to put a repeat inside my repeat, hoping that Ferret won't see the subterfuge :o) !

Regards,

Emilie
