Are there any editor enhancements for editing NCL scripts?
Yes, see the support page for a list. • If I’m running NCL interactively, are there any command-line shortcuts I can use? There are shortcuts that allow you to navigate through previous commands and edit them. For more information, go to the “NCL Command Line Shortcuts” section in the NCL Reference Manual. • If I’m running interactively, how can I load some existing NCL code? You can use the loadscript procedure, where you give it the name of the file that contains NCL commands. • Is there anyway I can turn off the preceding “(n)” output when I print a bunch of values? If you are using print to print some values, and you see output like this: Variable: x Type: float Total Size: 80 bytes 20 values Number of Dimensions: 1 Dimensions and sizes: [20] Coordinates: (0) 0 (1) 0.5263158 (2) 1.052632 (3) 1.578947 (4) 2.105263 (5) 2.631579 . . . then you can get rid of the “(0)”, “(1)”, etc, by using the “-n” command line option when you invoke “ncl”. Your output will then look like: Variable: x
