[esp-r] Re: climate dates

[Aizaz Samuel]

Pischetola and Nicola,

To import epw files you need to edit these as described in 
https://espr.svn.cvsdude.com/esp-r/trunk/src/climate/README_IWEC

For reading in .xls files export the file as a text file making sure it has 
the correct format (as found at 
https://espr.svn.cvsdude.com/esp-r/trunk/src/climate/ 
look at any of the files with a .a extension). Easiest way to export is ctrl+A 
> ctrl+C (in the spreadsheet) and then ctrl+V in a text editor provided all 
the information in the spreadsheet is relevant.

Once you have the correct format give the command clm from a command line. 
Then new climate database > give name > import text file > ASCII ESP-r file > 
with day demarcation lines. When data is read in display e.g. temperature to 
check.
