Owen,

>I just got back from the AMS meeting in Dallas and am very excited
>about using Vis5D in my research, after having seen some pretty amazing
>demonstrations of its ability.

Vis5D is pretty cool.

>I have found Bill Hibbard's Vis5D webpage and it's been very helpful, but I'm
>most intereseted in using the version that comes packaged with MCIDAS, so I
>can easily use MCIDAS grid files.
>
>When I type vis5d at the mcidas prompt, the vis5d data importer GUI pops up.
>I have tried typing in the full path name of a grid file but nothing happens.
>What I could use is some sort of documentaion for the version of vis5d that
>runs with mcidas.  I've been all over the unidata webpage but haven't been 
>able to find an on-line users guide.  Am I missing something here?
>
>Can you let me know where I can find this documentation?

We have not bothered to bring the Vis5D documentation from SSEC to Unidata.
Instead, we point users such as yourself to the pages maintained by
SSEC:

http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/mug/

Go to the Vis5D Users' Guide link in the left hand side frame.

>Thanks
