I'm not familiar with "bicpl", but ncopen is in the library created by
building from the netcdf 3.5.0 source (it's defined in
src/libsrc/v2i.c).  So either you haven't installed the resulting
netcdf library in a place where "bicpl" can find it, or you haven't
told "bicpl" where to look for the netcdf library.  I would need more
details to diagnose the problem further.

If you're following the instructions at:

  http://www.bic.mni.mcgill.ca/~stever/Software/MacOSX/Notes.2001-08-16

for building bicpl, for example, it installs the netcdf library in
"/usr/local/mni" by specifying that location when running the
"configure" script.  Then it specifies the same directory for where
bicpl should find its libraries by the arguments to the bicpl
"configure" script.  You could follow the same steps with a different
directory than "/usr/local/mni" and it should still work.  If you
still have problems, please send us the details to
"address@hidden".
