New version of Ncview is now available.

Ncview version 1.38b is now available.  Ncview is a visual browser for 
numerical netCDF data files.  It pops up a color-contour window of your 
data, and a control panel from which you can access the variables in your 
file along the applicable dimensions.  You can animate the data along the 
"unlimited" dimension (often Time) to make a simple movie.  It's a nice 
tool to quickly get a feel for just what your data looks like and how it 
is evolving.

Source for ncview is available by anonymous ftp from unidata.ucar.edu in 
file pub/netcdf/contrib/ncview.tar.Z.  

I also have binaries available for those who can't or don't want to build 
the package themselves.  The binaries are available by anonymous ftp from 
cirrus.ucsd.edu in directory pub/ncview_binaries.  There are currently 
binary versions made for the following platforms: Dec Alpha (OSF/1); Dec 
Ultrix; HP/UX; SunOS; SGI Irix 5.2 and 6.0.1.  

Please note that you need the latest *standard* version of the netCDF library
to compile Ncview.  It doesn't presently work if you've installed the
experimental C++ interface, due to changes in the netCDF header files.
