skgb()

subroutine skgb	(	integer	lugb,
		integer	iseek,
		integer	mseek,
		integer	lskip,
		integer	lgrib
	)

Search a file for the next GRIB1 or GRIB2 message.

A grib message is identified by its indicator section, which is an 8-byte sequence with 'GRIB' in bytes 1-4 and a '1' or '2' in byte

1. If found, the length of the message is decoded from bytes 5-7. The search is done over a given section of the file. The search is terminated if an eof or i/o error is encountered.

Parameters

[in]	lugb	Unit of the unblocked grib file.
[in]	iseek	Number of bytes to skip before search.
[in]	mseek	Maximum number of bytes to search.
[out]	lskip	Number of bytes to skip before message.
[out]	lgrib	Number of bytes in message (0 if not found).

skgb8()

subroutine skgb8	(	integer	lugb,
		integer*8	iseek8,
		integer*8	mseek8,
		integer*8	lskip8,
		integer*8	lgrib8
	)

Search a file for the next GRIB1 or GRIB2 message.

This function works for GRIB2 files larger than 2 GB, but still requires that each GRIB2 message be less than 2 GB.
