ccm2nc running on any of the SGI machines can convert CCM history files
that were created on any of the CRAYs to netCDF, and vice versa. ccm2nc
looks at the input CCM history file and determines whether the floating
point format is cray, ieee float, or ieee double, and then converts that
format to the one of the machine on which ccm2nc is running.
On the NCAR machines ccm2nc is located in the following places:
on antero use:
/fs/cgd/csm/bin/C90/ccm2nc
on aztec, chipeta, ouray, or paiute:
/fs/cgd/csm/bin/J90/ccm2nc
on ute:
/fs/cgd/csm/bin/O2K/ccm2nc
on winterpark:
/fs/cgd/csm/bin/SGI/ccm2nc
There is also a manpage for ccm2nc that can be see with the command
"man -M /fs/cgd/csm/man ccm2nc"
