Hi Jim
> Is there a way to automatically load scripts like "contributed.ncl"?
Indeed; you use the "load" directive somewhere in your script. Examples:
load "/path/to/contributed.ncl"
load "$NCARG_ROOT/lib/etc/myFunctions.ncl"
Full paths and environment variables acceptable when referencing scripts
external to a script you're running, or in interactive mode.

Are you thinking in terms of memory usage as a penalty, or something else?
Loading a script in interactive mode is effectively no different than
loading it from within another script.
Here's a link with some further information:
