[ncl-talk] label the plot using the own created list

[Mary Haley]

If you know that the date strings will always start and end in the exact
same columns, then you can use str_get_cols. As an example:

 filenames = (/"th1001_2015_05_07_18.l100", \
               "th1001_2015_05_08_00.l100", \
               "th1001_2015_05_08_06.l100", \
               "th1001_2015_05_08_12.l100" /)


​date_list
 = str_get_cols(filenames,7,19)
 print("dates = '" + dates + "'")

The error message you're getting is because "date_list" is not a defined
variable. I assume that date_list was supposed to be the date extractions,
so that error should go away once you set this.
