[ncl-install] ncl installation problem

Thu Apr 23 10:04:37 MDT 2020

Hi Julius,

I just tried running NUG_multi_timeseries.ncl on my machine and experienced the same thing, there is no useful text output from this script. I read through the script and found that this is the expected behavior and that this script actually creates a PNG image as its output. If you look in the directory you were in when you ran the test (it looks like you ran it from your home directory “~”), there should be a file “NUG_multi_timeseries.png”.

I’m sorry for the confusion, and I hope this helps!
Kevin
