IDV support

Some of the data files that are saved in the digatmos directory can be used by IDV These include the grib data files, which are saved in the directory

digatmos/model/grib
and the frontal bulletins that saved in
digatmos/nwx/hpc/fronts
Assuming that the noaaport data directories have been exported via Samba, the data files mentioned above can be opened from the IDV menu
Data -> New Source -> From the File System
specifying in that same menu the corresponding file type, grid or frontal bulletin.

The same data can be accessed remotely by selecting the ``Catalog'' item in that same menu, and pointing to

http://nbspserver:8015/_catalog/digatmos
substituting nbspserver by the correct name or ip.
