Jerry,

It sounds like your PATH environment variable didn't get set up correctly.
Or, once you set the path, it may not take effect until you log out and log
back in.

What does the following report:

env | grep NCARG
echo $PATH

Did you actually gunzip the gzipped tarfile in the directory "
/Users/jienjerr/ncl-6.3.0/ncl_ncarg-6.3.0.MacOS_10.10_64bit_nodap_gcc492"?
If so, then your environment settings need to look like this:

export NCARG_ROOT=/Users/jienjerr/ncl-6.3.0/
ncl_ncarg-6.3.0.MacOS_10.10_64bit_nodap_gcc492
export PATH=$NCARG_ROOT/bin:$PATH

--Mary
