Steve:

Steve:

I checked the shell I was using, but I always run csh by default, so
that wasn't the problem.  I only changed the path for the setenv command
in Gemenviron:

setenv NAWIPS /usr/local/src/NAWIPS

my guess is this isn't the problem.  So, I attached the script for
Gemenviron and maybe you can find the problem!  I guess its possible
that my version is fouled up in some way.

Thanks for your help with this!

Dave.
