Please try Version 3.1.3 of NCAR Graphics ----------------------------------------- NCAR Graphics Version 3.1.3 has been fixed on the CRAY Y-MP8/864 (sha- vano). We hope to make 3.1.3 the default in a couple of weeks, so please test it as much as possible now. Any problems should be reported to Mary Haley by sending e-mail to ncargfx@ncar.ucar.edu or calling (303) 497- 1309. To use Version 3.1.3a subroutines, you need to do two things: 1. Set an environment variable by adding the following to your script C shell: setenv NCARG_PARAMETER_FILE /usr/local/ncarg3.1.3/lib/ncargparams Bourne shell: NCARG_PARAMETER_FILE=/usr/local/ncarg3.1.3/lib/ncargparams export NCARG_PARAMETER_FILE 2. Modify the library search order on your segldr command by inserting /usr/local/ncarg3.1.3/lib before /usr/local/lib on the -L option. For example: segldr -L /lib,/usr/lib,/usr/local/ncarg3.1.3/lib,\ /usr/local/lib \ -l ncarg,ncarg_loc,ncarg_gks program.o If you use the ncargf77 command to compile and load instead of segldr, use: ncargf77 program.f # uses NCARG_PARAMETER_FILE To use the Version 3.1.3a commands, such as ctrans, med, and idt, you need to insert /usr/local/ncarg3.1.3/bin before /usr/local/bin in your shell search path (.cshrc or .profile). The dots (...) in the example below indicate paths before and after what you need to insert - do NOT type them: C shell: set path = ( ... /usr/local/ncarg3.1.3/bin /usr/local/bin ... ) Bourne shell: PATH=...:/usr/local/ncarg3.1.3/bin:/usr/local/bin:... If you have questions about accessing this new version, contact the con- sultant on duty by sending e-mail to consult1@ncar.ucar.edu or calling (303) 497-1278.
