Re: [ferret_users] Limit of length argument

[Ansley Manke <ansley.b.manke@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Patrick,
Yes we can lengthen those limits, but you could also put your set of 
"use" statements into another script, so that the argument to your 
script is just   "open_files.jnl"  and then the script runs that to open 
all the files.  Does that make sense?
