I think that you may not have installed XQuartz properly.  Please follow
the instructions under "Install XQuartz" on this page:

    http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Download/macosx.shtml

Make sure that after downloading the Xquartz.dmg file, you double click on
this file and complete the installation procedure.  You may also need to
restart your Mac after the install procedure.  Then retry the ncl test
command.
