[ncl-talk] muting output to screen?

[Joe Grim]

Karin and Kyle,

Thanks so much for your answers!  Karin, your solution was exactly what I
wanted!  Kyle, a couple of your solutions work too, and looking through the
other options you gave taught me things that will be useful in the future.

Thanks again!

Joe

If you don't have write permissions for your NCL installation location, you can simply copy the code (including the undef("obj_anal_ic_deprecated) line above the function declaration) into its own file, make your desired changes, and load it at the bottom of your load statements for your script. Hope that makes sense, and let the list know if you need further help...
