[ncl-install] NCL 6.2.0 precompiled binary for cygwin

[Mary Haley]

Hi Joe,

I just went to www.earthsystemgrid.org and followed the links to the "ncl_​ncarg-​6.​2.​0.​CYGWIN_​NT-​6.​1-​WOW64_​i686.​tar.​gz" file. I downloaded this file, gunzipped and untarred it, and verified that it was version 6.2.0 by typing:

./ncl.exe -V

The above echoed 6.2.0.

Please check that you are actually running the NCL that you just installed, and not an old one that you may have had on your system.  You need to make sure NCARG_ROOT is set correctly, and that $NCARG_ROOT/bin is on your search path before any other paths that may contain old versions of NCL.

You can verify some of this by typing (at the UNIX prompt):

which ncl
env | grep NCARG
ncl -V

This section may help:

(By the way, I followed all of the instructions on the NCL website for installing it for cygwin: http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Download/cygwin.shtml)  Would you mind looking into this, please?  Thanks!
