Hi folks,

In addition to Spot's freshly polished opendap version, I'd like to
submit this ncview package for review:

  http://mitgcm.org/eh3/fedora_misc/ncview-1.92e-2.src.rpm
  http://mitgcm.org/eh3/fedora_misc/ncview.spec

It compiles and works for me on FC3 and FC4.

Ncview is a great little interactive utility for creating 1D/2D plots of
numerical data stored in netCDF files.  It can do animated loops and can
write output to files which, when combined with simple shell/ImageMagick
scripts, is a very convenient way to create simple "movies".

Please point out any blockers and I'll fix them ASAP.

thank you,
Ed
