[ncl-talk] load scripts in multiple NCLfiles program

[Dave Allured - NOAA Affiliate]

Franz,

I think in your case, the solution may be as simple as loading script2.ncl
before script1.ncl.

My understanding is that in NCL, each function must be defined or "loaded"
before it is referenced.  This is a simplification of what Dennis said.  So
if you have a function in script2.ncl that is called somewhere in
script1.ncl, then script2.ncl must be loaded before script1.ncl.
