Hi,
I used zyGrib for some weather routing on a trip from Gibraltar to the Canaries. What I really missed is the option to enter a start point, and then either course and speed, or to manually add additional points with ETA values - and then see the Wind speed and direction at the single positions in a tabular format.
Sure one can do that manually, but if you play some 'what-if' scenarios, it can be some effort.
I know at least one navigation program that does automatic weather routing using grib files, but thats around 1250$ license fee....
Thanks!

Very interesting program that I did not know. Thanks a lot for mentioning it.
As I can see, it shares some of the zyGrib features and code. I have tried to contact the authors in order to offer them to translate the program into Spanish, but I have not been able to contact them since I do not speak French. Could you help with that?
Thanks a lot,
Tropelio

Send it to me (translation at zygrib dot org) and I will transmit to the author of qtVlm.
Thanks for your help
