Re: A strange error message.

Hi Yi,

I'm not sure why NCL is reporting "-1" as a line number. I think NCL
has always been off by one when it reports line numbers (something
that is on our list to fix).

In your case, maybe NCL wants a carriage return after the "end"
statement. Please try this and let me know if it doesn't work.
