Re: Bus Error with MacOSX , ver 6.0.0-beta and ver 5.2.1

Hi Mary,

Sorry for the delay. Please find attached a sample script.  The data
used in this script is from the "Example data sets available at the
NCL home page"
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Data/cdf/wrfout_d01_2003-07-15_00:00:00

The WRF library loaded after the standard NCL libraries are from

http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/Graphics/NCL/Examples/EXPERIMENTAL/WRFUserARW_add.ncl

In fact the Bus Error appears only when using this version of the
WRFUserARW_add.ncl The WRF website says that this is an experimental
version of the said library script. On the other hand, when I use
5.1.1 with this library, there is no Bus Error

The version available at
"$NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/wrf/WRFUserARW.ncl" thankfully does
not give the Bus Error with both versions.

Thanks,

saji
