Hi Stonie,Thanks for the suggestion, but that didn't help. I edited $GEMTBL/nmap/spf.nmap and created a test directory for the ~/Documents folder. However, Nmap2 still crashed upon trying to restore the test setting(tried all sorts of variations). I tried running Gempak under bash(I'm a tcsh user by default), but the results were the same.

James - when I had last played with this, the issue was pathing. But this was pre 10.6.x - so I am only guessing.When I saved a data setting, it stored it local to the path from which I ran the nmap2 session, usually just my home directory.But the Mac OS bash shell always wanted to read it from ~/Documents. See if that helps. Stonie On 08/13/2013 05:24 PM, James Murakami wrote:Hi, I recently compiled GEMPAK 6.8.0 on a mini-Mac(OS X version 10.6.8). It seemed to compile fine, but one problem I ran into regards one functionality of Nmap2. The "Restore Data Settings" button(within the Data Selection Window) doesn't work. I created a map with radar imagery and surface observations superimposed. I clicked on the "Save Data Settings" button. Later, when I tried to bring up the same setting, the program crashes. This doesn't occur with Gempak on my Linux(CentOS) machine. Another quirk I found is that Nmap2 nor the program, gpmap, will plot a vgf file(only the map background shows up). Again, it's not a problem on my Linux machine(using the same data files). Have others noticed these problems, and is there a solution for it? The reason I'm using a Mac in this case it that it'll be a replacement for a Department display for the public. The current min-mac uses binary version of GEMPAK 5.11.1. I need to upgrade GEMPAK to be able to display gini satellite imagery(just copying the latest satellite configuration tables don't work for gini imagery). The closet space behind the display case is just large enough to accommodate a mini-mac. James.
