Re: [ferret_users] heavy files

Estanislao,

Use a repeat loop and save/append... eg:
repeat/l=2191:4380 ( save/append/file=normal.nc sossheig )

You also might want to control if the data is to be saved in single or double precision ( http://ferret.pmel.noaa.gov/Ferret/documentation/users-guide/commands-reference/SET#_VPINDEXENTRY_setlist_outtype )

Cheers,
Paulo
