[ncl-install] thought I fixed the path, but did not take either?

It looks like your .cshrc file is not getting "sourced" when you login. This could be because there's something wrong with it, or perhaps your default shell is not csh, but something else like bash.

Note that your NCARG_ROOT is set to /Applications/ncl_ncarg-5.1.1.MacOS_powerpc_9.7.0/bin. Which .* file in your home directory is setting this? This is probably the file you should modify to change NCARG_ROOT to the new path.

Also, when you run "ng4ex", you shouldn't put "./" in front of it, because then the operating system will think it is in your current working directory.  Just type:

   ng4ex gsun01n

and if your path environment variable is set correctly, your OS will find it.

I think you are going to run into further problems with the way you have DISPLAY set. I would try commenting this out, and let the OS try to figure out the correct setting for it. The way you have it below looks incorrect.
