Hi Folks,
I've released a new version of Ncview, the X-windows utility that lets you
quickly and easily see color contour images, movies, and plots of the
contents of netCDF-format files just by pointing and clicking. This is a
fairly substantial change from the last version, and I suggest that all users
upgrade to the new version. If you're not a user, but you have data in
netCDF format, I suggest you give Ncview a try! It is extremely handy for
getting an overview of what is in your file.
You can get source code for many Unix platforms from:

(I also have a separate version for the Cray that I haven't merged into
the main distribution yet -- email me if interested, dpierce@xxxxxxxx)
New features:
-------------
* Now have a option to dump Postscript to a printer or a file.
* Improved "range" feature lets you share mins and/or maxes between
different concurrent invocations of Ncview.
* Numerous bug fixes, including some serious ones.
* More customizable (assuming you know how to do X application defaults
files!).
* Better support for Solaris.
