See if this gives you the correct results: $/ = \4; my $file = 'goes.nav'; open FILE, $file or die "Cannot open $file: $!"; binmode FILE; my ( $ysize, $xsize ) = unpack 'ss', reverse scalar <FILE>; print " width=$xsize height=$ysize\n"; my ( @lat, @lon ); for my $yyyy ( 1 .. $ysize ) { for my $xxxx ( 1 .. $xsize ) { ( $lon[$xxxx][$yyyy], $lat[$xxxx][$yyyy] ) = map $_ *= 0.01, unpack 'ss', reverse scalar <FILE>; } } John -- use Perl; program fulfillment -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
