[ncl-install] problem with set up my NCL environment‏

[Mary Haley]

Hi Sebastien,

Your PATH environment variable is okay, because if it wasn't, you
would be getting an error like:

   ncl: Command not found

It looks like your NCARG_ROOT environment variable is not being set
correctly. I think this is because "NCARG_ROOT" is being set with the
"set" command, which is wrong.

Replace the two NCARG_ROOT lines you have in the .bashrc file with:

    export NCARG_ROOT=/usr/local

Then, logout and log back in, and try running NCL again.

You can also check that NCARG_ROOT is set correctly by typing:

   echo $NCARG_ROOT

I will fix the documentation that has the incorrect information.
