Dave,

What happens if you try:

  ncl infile=\"filespec\" script.ncl

I'm hoping that NCL will see that "script.ncl" and decide that
it is done reading input.

When it's the other way, however, NCL may be thinking that
*everything* after the "script.ncl" is a command line option,
and so it reads it all in.
