Re: length of full path

It appears to be 220 characters on my MAC.

load "$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/csm/gsn_code.ncl"

  ;nchar = 221 ; FAIL
   nchar = 220

   char = new ( nchar, "character")
   ca = stringtochar("a")
   char = ca(0)

   pltName = chartostring( char )
   pltType = "eps"

   wks = gsn_open_wks(pltType, pltName)
   gsn_draw_colormap(wks)
