[ncl-install] Help installing/running NCL

[Brian Evans]

Hello,

I'm trying to install NCL 6.5.0 in Cygwin, following the directions here: https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Download/windows_cygwin.shtml#InstallNCL

I've followed all steps to the letter (with the exception of installing everything into /opt/local), but when I get to the steps to "Test NCL":


1.       ncl -V doesn't return anything

2.       The graphical test doesn't open a plot, and just does the same thing as ncl -V, no output, just goes back to the command prompt

I tried 1 in both the standard Cygwin window, and Cygwin/X, and 2 in a Cygwin/X Xterm. Both tests were done in csh (though "echo $SHELL" still returns /bin/bash, but it still acts like csh), and "which ncl" returns the correct location for the binary (/opt/local/bin/ncl).

Would appreciate any help you can provide!

Thanks,
Brian Evans
