Hello,

I'm trying to install NCL Version 6.2.0 and testing the installation
with the command   'ng4ex gsun01n -clean'.  I'm getting the following
errors:

 GKS ERROR NUMBER -208 ISSUED FROM SUBROUTINE GOPWK :
 --X driver error: DISPLAY environment variable not set
 GKS ERROR NUMBER   25 ISSUED FROM SUBROUTINE GESC  :
 --SPECIFIED WORKSTATION IS NOT OPEN
fatal:Workstation with PID#8 is not open

fatal:["Execute.c":8565]:Execute: Error occurred at or near line 12
Finished running 'ncl < gsun01n'...

I have a MAC OSX, version 10.9.3.  How might I fix this?

Thanks,
Octavia
