[ncl-talk] NCL installation

[Dave Allured - NOAA Affiliate]

Mac OS should be setting DISPLAY automatically when you open a new terminal
window.  It looks like you might be overwriting the valid setting.  Try
removing all the "export DISPLAY" lines, then open a new terminal window
and see if that helps.  "echo $DISPLAY" to see the default setting, if any.
