Please note that, for various reasons, a "finkable" version of NCL is
no longer available. To obtain the latest version of NCL for Mac OSX
"tiger," please visit the Earth System Grid site
(http://www.earthsystemgrid.org), where you may obtain a login and then
access the NCL distribution for your host.

To obtain a login (if you don't have one), please click on the "Login"
tab and then follow the instructions given.

Once you have a login and have logged in, you can access the "Shortcuts
menu" to the "Latest NCL release" and choose " NCL 4.2.0.a033 binaries
(not OPeNDAP-enabled)" and then " NCL 4.2.0.a033 for MacOSX (10.4)"

-Rick.
