[ncl-talk] NCL and El Capitan

Wed Jun 22 15:04:01 MDT 2016

Just an FYI: I uploaded an NCL V6.3.0 binary for El Capitan (MacOS 10.11)
that was build with the GNU 5.3 compilers.

If anybody needs access to this, go to:

https://www.earthsystemgrid.org/dataset/ncl.630.0/file.html

You will see the file:

ncl_ncarg-6.3.0.MacOS_10.11_64bit_gcc530.tar.gz
