[GEMPAK #PTO-320387]: nprog GUI

Scott,

For the gempak user error "Error: Can't open display:", try setting your 
DISPLAY environmental variable (setenv DISPLAY :0.0 or use export for bash). 

For the research user error "Fatal Error: cannot fine resource file (Ntop), 
check $XUSERFILESEARCHPATH or under $HOME", it seems that the $NAWIPS 
environmental variable is not set, as Ntop should be found in 
$NAWIPS/resource/Ntop.

What is the output of "env"?  Are you seeing the correct $NAWIPS and GEMPAK 
paths?  Did you modify Gemenviron.profile at all?

-Michael
