Re: write binary

Hi,
Managed to write sequential unformatted binary! The following segment
seems to be similar to the fortran segment. Hope somebody might benefit
with this info.

dateF = (/year,month,day,1.,0./)
fbinrecwrite(outpath, -1, dateF )
fbinrecwrite(outpath, -1, merged({loni:lonf},{lati:latf},n,nd))

*PS: on the example page of "fbinwrite", the example given is for
*"**fbindirwrite"*
