19990202: NAWIPS for multiple SUN Ultras

Dave,

If the /usr/local/src/NAWIPS directory is readable by
all the machines, then if all the .cshrc files have
source /usr/local/src/NAWIPS/Gemenviron 
and in Gemenviron, NAWIPS is set to /usr/local/src/NAWIPS then
you should be able to run the distribution on any machine.

If you have moved the directory tree, then you will need to
edit the NAWIPS environmental variable in Gemenviron
so that it is now where the tree has been moved to. Also, make sure 
that the "source" command can find Gemenviron....with
the full path.
