Re: Exit code for NCL ?

Hi Emilie,

You can use the special "status_exit" procedure to exit with a number. see:

My main interest is to trap errors when I run a script in batch mode a hundred times with different parameters (distinct calls to 'ncl' each time). As far as I can see, '$?' (from a command line) can be 0 whether or not an error occurred and I cannot distinguish any consistent behaviour in the other '$?' values I obtain (130, 252, etc.) apart from the fact that they are reproducible.
