    If you have installed the NCAR Graphics binaries on your system, then
    you need to set up two things:

       1. Set the environment variable NCARG_ROOT to point to the parent
          directory of where you installed NCAR Graphics. For example,
          if you installed NCAR Graphics to /usr/local/ncarg/bin,
          /usr/local/ncarg/lib, etc., then you would set NCARG_ROOT to
          /usr/local/ncarg.

       2. You need to make sure you have $NCARG_ROOT/bin on your search
          path. I am not familiar enough with bashrc to tell you how to do
          this, but in a .cshrc file, it might look like this:

               set path=($NCARG_ROOT/bin $path)

    If this doesn't answer your question, please feel free to send me a
    personal email message.

    Cheers,
