Guangshan,

Can you run:

WRAPIT -d calculate_distance_1d.f

This will echo all the compilation that's taking place. I'm not
familiar with MacOS 10.6, but this may be a 32/64 compilation issue.
The NCL you have is 32-bit, and the compilation may be 64-bit.

No, I'm sorry, I don't, but there's some information that comes up if
you google "macport ncl".

These are listed at:

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Download/
build_from_src.shtml#BuildNonOptionalSoftware

This list is of the non-optional software, which includes NetCDF,
JPEG, zlib, and HDF4.

The following section covers the optional software, like GRIB2, HDF-
EOS, and Udunits.

There's detailed information about how to build each package.

The required compilers are basically gcc and gfortran. You can use
other compilers, but you will always need a basic C compiler and a
Fortran 77 compiler.
