Compliling CDO as a non-root user

1. Download the most recent CDO version. New features and bug fixes are common and users are urged to keep an up-to-date version of CDO.
2. Create a local installation directory in your home. In BASH:

   mkdir -p ~/local/cdo
   export CDO_HOME="~/local/cdo"
   

3. Build libs4cdo, to be found on the CDO website. In the libs4cdo directory:

   ./configure --prefix=$CDO_HOME
   make
   make install
